Key legal question
Whether the 60,000 CHF moral damages award under Art. 47 CO was premature or excessive
Extracted holding
The award was neither premature nor manifestly excessive given the severity and lasting consequences of the injuries.
Extracted reasoning
Later improvement in the victim's condition does not bar moral damages; the Federal Court found no abuse of discretion in light of the grave physical and psychological harm, long suffering, and absence of any reduction factor.
