Key legal question
Whether the foreign judgment could be refused recognition because the initiating documents were not duly served under Art. 27 No. 2 LugÜ and Art. 15 Hague Service Convention.
Extracted holding
The objection failed: the documents were served at the debtor's Munich residence, and the service on an adult household member was valid.
Extracted reasoning
The court held that the debtor had indicated Munich as his residence for service purposes and that the service certificate did not show service on anyone other than his wife; the challenge was therefore unfounded.
