Question juridique clé
Whether the conditions of Art. 41 LN were met to annul facilitated naturalization obtained by false declarations or concealment of essential facts.
Solution extraite
The chronological sequence of separation, divorce, and rapid formation of a new family supported the presumption of fraud, and the appellant did not rebut it.
Motifs extraits
A facilitated naturalization may be annulled if it was obtained through deceptive conduct concerning the stability of the marriage. A rapid breakdown after naturalization can create a factual presumption of prior lack of marital stability; the naturalized person need only show a reasonable possibility that no deceit occurred, but here the appellant provided no convincing contrary evidence or extraordinary event explaining the deterioration.
