Key legal question
Whether the appeal against the Federal Administrative Court judgment was admissible, including the request for a declaratory finding and the challenge to the earlier administrative decision.
Extracted holding
The appeal was admissible in principle, but the request for a declaratory finding was inadmissible for lack of a separate legal interest, and the direct challenge to the earlier administrative decision was inadmissible because it was replaced by the appellate judgment.
Extracted reasoning
The annulment of facilitated naturalization is not covered by the statutory exception for ordinary naturalizations; however, the appealed administrative decision is absorbed by the devolutive effect. A separate declaratory interest was not shown.
