Key legal question
Whether the constitutional complaint against the municipal naturalization refusal remained justiciable after a new municipal vote on 7 December 2006
Extracted holding
The complaint had become moot because the appellants no longer had an current practical interest in reviewing the challenged decision of 22 June 2006.
Extracted reasoning
A constitutional complaint requires a current practical interest. Once the municipality reconsidered and again refused the application, review of the earlier decision no longer could produce a practical legal effect; the exceptional grounds for hearing a moot case were absent.
