Questão jurídica principal
Whether the subsidiary constitutional complaint was admissible and whether the complainant had standing to raise arbitrariness and reasoning complaints.
Decisão extraída
The complaint was admissible in principle, but the complainant lacked standing to invoke arbitrariness because he had no entitlement to naturalization; he could, however, complain of discrimination and formal denial of justice and challenge a complete lack of reasoning.
Fundamentação extraída
Art. 83 lit. b BGG excludes the ordinary public-law appeal in naturalization matters. Without a legal entitlement to naturalization, mere wrongness of the decision cannot be attacked under Art. 9 BV, but procedural guarantees and special fundamental rights may still be invoked.
