According to this, a foreigner must be mandatorily deported from Germany if they have committed the criminal offenses specified in \u00a7 53 AufenthG (cases of particularly serious crimes, such as murder, manslaughter, robbery, etc.).<\/p>\n<p>Regular deportation of a foreigner from Germany is stipulated in \u00a7 54 AufenthG. According to this, a foreigner is deported in cases of serious criminal offenses or drug-related crimes (e.g., trafficking or possession of narcotics).<\/p>\n<p>Discretionary deportation, on the other hand, is established in \u00a7 55 AufenthG. According to this, a foreigner may be deported if their stay endangers public safety and order or other significant interests of the Federal Republic of Germany.<\/p>\n<p>Overview of Deportation:<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2872 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mth-partner.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ausweisung.png\" alt=\"Designation\" width=\"705\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mth-partner.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ausweisung.png 705w, https:\/\/www.mth-partner.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ausweisung-600x226.png 600w, https:\/\/www.mth-partner.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ausweisung-300x113.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 705px) 100vw, 705px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In cases of deportation, the deportation protection also stipulated in the Residence Act must generally be observed.<\/p>\n<p>In the case mentioned above, the Administrative Court of Osnabr\u00fcck had to decide whether a foreign national, sentenced to over 5 years of imprisonment, could be deported from Germany despite being the father of a German daughter.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sachverhalt_des_gerichtlichen_Verfahrens\"><\/span>Facts of the Case:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The applicant, born in 1987, entered the Federal Republic of Germany in 1988 with his parents. He is the father of a minor daughter who possesses German citizenship. Until February 2011, he committed, after already having been convicted of other offenses, over one hundred serious crimes as the main perpetrator of a gang. These included numerous burglaries into company and office buildings, mainly in the Emsland region.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Verurteilung_und_Inhaftierung\"><\/span>Conviction and Imprisonment<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>On August 10, 2011, the Regional Court of Osnabr\u00fcck sentenced the applicant to 5 years and 2 months in prison for these offenses. The applicant is currently serving his sentence in the Lingen correctional facility.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ausweisung_und_Abschiebung\"><\/span>Deportation and Removal<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In light of the imposed prison sentence, the district of Emsland ordered the applicant\u2019s deportation from the Federal Republic of Germany. Additionally, the district ordered his removal directly from custody and imposed a re-entry ban for four years.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Urteil_des_Verwaltungsgerichts_Osnabruck\"><\/span>Judgment of the Administrative Court of Osnabr\u00fcck<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The Administrative Court of Osnabr\u00fcck dismissed the applicant\u2019s appeal against these measures. The court stated that the immigration measures were legally unobjectionable. The deportation was a mandatory consequence of the imposed prison sentence. The applicant\u2019s fatherhood of his German daughter did not grant him protection from deportation, as no protective family relationship with his daughter existed. His behavior, especially the large number of crimes committed in a short time, showed that he had no genuine interest in his daughter. The removal directly from custody was justified to enforce the deportation. The four-year re-entry ban did not violate the applicant\u2019s rights either.<\/p>\n<p>Source: Administrative Court of Osnabr\u00fcck<\/p>\n<p><b>Important Note: The content of this article has been prepared to the best of our knowledge and belief.
