Question juridique clé
Whether the cantonal court arbitrarily applied the excess-income allocation method for maintenance
Solution extraite
No. The Federal Court held that the reasoning was not manifestly unsustainable and that the husband did not show arbitrariness.
Motifs extraits
The cantonal court could apply the minimum-vital method with allocation of surplus, taking into account the marital standard of living and the children’s needs; the challenged amount did not exceed the previous family standard.
