An adult student contested the refusal of a study grant. The court held that, for Art. 19(3)(b) LEE, it is not necessary that the respondent or family member be taxable in Geneva. It further held that a student who proves the absence of a family household is economically independent on that basis alone and does not need to satisfy the additional five conditions of Art. 19(1)(a)-(e) LEE.
LEE art. 19 al. 3 let. b; study grants; absence of family household; economic independence; The beneficiary need not show that the respondent was taxable in Geneva. Where an adult student proves the absence of a family household within the meaning of Art. 19 al. 3 let. b LEE, that circumstance alone suffices to establish economic independence for grant purposes; the additional conditions of Art. 19 al. 1 let. a-e LEE do not cumulatively apply. The relevant criterion is the objective lack of family household, not the fiscal situation of the parents or respondent (consid. unspecified).

Résumé
Il n'est pas nécessaire que le répondant d'un étudiant ait été contribuable à Genève pour que l'étudiant puisse bénéficier d'une allocation sur la base de l'art. 19 al. 3 litt. b LEE (défaut du groupe familial). L'étudiant majeur qui apporte la preuve du défaut de groupe familial au sens de l'article 19 alinéa 3 lettre b LEE (en l'espèce, depuis des années avant sa majorité, sans nouvelles de ses parents divorcés) doit être considéré comme économiquement indépendant à ce seul titre, sans qu'il ait à satisfaire au surplus aux cinq conditions énoncées à l'article 19 alinéa 1 lettres a à e LEE.

Whether a student must show that the respondent was a taxpayer in Geneva to benefit under Art. 19(3)(b) LEE.
No. Eligibility under Art. 19(3)(b) LEE does not require proof that the respondent was a taxpayer in Geneva.
The court held that the decisive element is the absence of a family household, not the tax status of the respondent in Geneva.
Whether an adult student who proves the absence of a family household must also satisfy the five conditions of Art. 19(1)(a)-(e) LEE.
No. Once the student proves the absence of a family household under Art. 19(3)(b) LEE, the student is economically independent on that basis alone and need not additionally meet the five conditions of Art. 19(1)(a)-(e) LEE.
The court treated the proof of the absence of the family household as sufficient in itself to establish economic independence for grant eligibility.
