Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the civil status register entry could be corrected administratively under Art. 43 CC
Extrahierter Entscheid
Administrative correction is possible only for an obvious, uncontested clerical error or mistake apparent from the documents available at the time of registration; here a correction was excluded because an objection by the registered person had to be expected.
Extrahierte Begründung
The court held that the alleged defect did not amount to a clearly evident error. Since the registered person considered himself the son of the deceased and would likely oppose deletion, the situation was not unequivocal, which bars correction by civil status authorities.
