Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the French default judgment concerning maintenance falls within the Lugano Convention and may be enforced in Switzerland.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. Because the foreign decision concerns maintenance within a divorce proceeding, the Lugano Convention applies and the related recognition/enforcement objections may be raised.
Extrahierte Begründung
The judgment ordered maintenance payments, not a non-covered family-law property claim; therefore Art. 1(2) LugÜ does not exclude it.
