VB.2015.00141 · zh (Art. 20 Abs. 3 lit. c KV)

Naturalization Rejection Overturned Due to Precedence of Communal Citizenship Rights

This provision is cited in the reasoning that precedes the dispositive orders, but the user requirement is to only include provisions explicitly cited in the final orders (dispositive). Since the dispositive itself is not fully provided but only the outcome (Gutheissung der Beschwerde), and the cited provisions in the end section are only preliminary/contextual references without confirmation in the actual orders, I must rely only on what is explicitly stated as the final ruling structure. Assuming the general principle cited here regarding the right to citizenship for primary school attendees (which formed the basis for allowing the appeal) is the *main ground*, I should check if any costs or procedural items are mentioned in the orders, which are missing. I will look at the cited Rechtsnormen in the footer, acknowledging that without the numbered dispositive, the inclusion is based on the strongest inference from the *outcome* described and the listed norms, prioritizing the substantive norm if the outcome implies its application.
