Key legal question
Whether the annulment of facilitated naturalization was issued within the five-year limitation period under Art. 41 Abs. 1 BüG
Extracted holding
The five-year period was respected because the annulment decision reached the appellant's representative on 19 June 2008, before expiry on 20 June 2008.
Extracted reasoning
The limitation period starts the day after notification of the naturalization decision and is met when the annulment decision enters the addressee's sphere of control. On the assumed facts, the deadline had not yet expired when notification occurred.
