Key legal question
Whether the administrative law appeal against the civil-status name entry was admissible.
Extracted holding
The appeal was admissible in principle because the matter concerned civil-status registration and the appellants still had a protected interest in having the husband entered under his sole surname.
Extracted reasoning
The court relied on the applicable civil-status and administrative provisions allowing federal administrative review and held that the appellants remained affected by the refusal to register the husband’s surname alone.
