Fernando Jose Antonio Ramirez

Legal representative lawyer H...K

Federal State Berlin represented by the State

Office of Citizen and Regulatory Affairs

- Alien‘s law -

I will note down the attendees

of today. Afterwards I am going

to present the statement

of affairs.

In 2008 you came to Germany as

the son of a diplomat. In 2009

you contracted a marriage. In

June 2010 you and your former

wife divorced which means that

the required three years of

marriage were not met. In 2010

your residence permit

was extended.

This year the

extension was

denied.

Furthermore, you don‘t fear of

reprisals in your home country.

Although you don‘t have family

there.

It does not

suffice for

a hardship

case.Yes, I was perso-

nally in Honduras.

Although the crimi-

nality rate is very

high this is not a

hardship case.

Then let‘s concentrate

on the labour permit.

The Federal Employment Office

denied an extension. However, as

an alternative, you can enroll

at a university. Could you

explain which graduation

degrees you

accomplished?

Yes, of course. I grew up

in the United States of

America. There I attended

High School. I will provide

my certificates, but it will

take a while. My sister

will help me.

Defendant: Mr. R. is not a minor. His sister does not have to look after him.

Lawyer: We need more time to provide the certificates.

Judge: Did you accomplish any other degrees? Plaintiff: No. I worked in the advertising industry.

Judge: Do you live alone or with your father?

Plaintiff: With my father, his wife and one brother.

I attended High School from

2003 until 2007 in the USA.

Afterwards I stayed in

Honduras for a short

period of time and from there

I went to Germany. I worked as

a fundraiser on behalf of an

association.

There are no legal grounds

for a work permit. If you

want to stay in Germany

you have to study. But in

any case you will have to

leave the country in order

to apply for a study visa.

There is no other way.

My company offered me

further educational

training in

Hamburg.

Distance study is

not recognized.

Can we make an

application for

extention?

I will give you a time

limit of one month

during which you would

have to leave the

country. Not more. Let me

tell you this

in advance.

The hearing is paused at 9.25.

The lawyer and the plaintiff are leaving the court room.

Can I speak to my

client for a moment?

Lawyer:

During the break:

A good boy. We usually

deal with other kinds of

people here. But he has

no chance.

Yes. I don‘t want to

dispute the four years

that he has worked, but

he has to leave the

country. That‘s clear.

The time passes...

Defendant: Did he meet a buddy?

Judge: Maybe he is occupied with doing his university degree at the moment (smiles). Defendant: Yes, he will bring a degree from Humboldt University (laughs).

Judge: What did you decide on?

Lawyer: We will make the application.

Judge: Good. Make the application,

then we will see.

The hearing is continued at 9:35.
