Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the children had to be appointed a curator of representation in the custody dispute
Extrahierter Entscheid
No mandatory appointment was shown; the cantonal court did not act arbitrarily by not ordering a curator ex officio.
Extrahierte Begründung
Under Art. 299 CPC, appointment is discretionary unless the child requests it. The file did not show circumstances making the omission arbitrary, especially since the children were heard and the father never requested a curator.
