ATA/553/1997•Study grant denied despite monthly support from father
ATA/553/1997Court of Justice / Administrative ChamberSep 23, 1997
Extracted by Omnilex
The decision concerns entitlement to a study grant under Art. 19 LEE. The student relied on the exception for cases of a total and durable rupture with the parents. The court held that this condition was not met because the student still received CHF 600 per month from his father abroad. Regular financial support was considered evidence that the family tie had not been broken in the required sense.
Art. 19 LEE; rupture totale et durable avec les parents: l’existence d’une aide financière régulière versée par un parent exclut en principe la reconnaissance d’une rupture totale et durable au sens de la disposition. Le critère suppose une séparation effective et persistante des relations familiales, non seulement un éloignement géographique ou des relations affaiblies. Des versements mensuels réguliers, même modestes, sont incompatibles avec une absence complète de lien parental (consid. non précisé).

Extracted by Omnilex
Whether the student was in a total and durable rupture with his parents within the meaning of Art. 19 LEE despite receiving monthly support from his father abroad.
No. Monthly financial support from the father indicated that the family relationship was not totally and durably severed.
A total and durable rupture with parents is incompatible with ongoing regular support payments from a parent, even if the parent lives abroad.
