Question juridique clé
Whether suspensive effect could be restored under Art. 314(2) CC for a child-protection custody decision
Solution extraite
Yes. The appellate authority could restore suspensive effect when the child's interest so required; this was not arbitrary on the facts.
Motifs extraits
Art. 314(2) CC permits depriving an appeal of suspensive effect in the child's interest. The same rationale allows restoration by the reviewing authority to make the protection measure effective. Given the child's stable situation with the father and the risk of being moved twice, maintaining the status quo was defensible.
