Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the Swiss divorce proceedings had to be suspended because a prior divorce action was already pending abroad under Art. 9 PILA.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The record showed that a U.S. divorce proceeding had been initiated before the Swiss filing, and an enforceable foreign decision could be expected within a reasonable time.
Extrahierte Begründung
The court relied on the summons and service documents in the file, the parties' own statements, and the lack of objective indications of forgery. The husband's denial did not disprove that the foreign case had been filed first.
