A French prefecture mistakenly issued an expulsion order to an Algerian woman, including the bizarre and legally impossible notation that she is “married to herself.” The “obligation de quitter le territoire français” (OQTF) – an order to leave French territory – contained this erroneous detail, sparking legal action. Lawyer Fayçal Megherbi is representing the woman in administrative court to challenge the order. The incident highlights a significant bureaucratic error within the French administrative system. Details surrounding how this error occurred remain unclear, but the case has drawn attention to potential issues in processing official documents. The story originated with TSA, a French-language news source. This unusual case is now being addressed through the French legal system.
