Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the placement of S. could be ordered without an expert assessment
Extrahierter Entscheid
No; because S. was assumed to be psychically ill or intellectually disabled, a specialist opinion was mandatory and the child hearing could not replace it.
Extrahierte Begründung
For a psychically ill child, Art. 397e No. 5 ZGB applies by analogy under Art. 314a ZGB; in such a case an expert must be consulted before deciding on appropriate placement.
