Question juridique clé
Whether the cantonal court arbitrarily treated the husband’s silence as a tacit admission under Geneva Civil Procedure Code art. 126
Solution extraite
The husband had not had a written opportunity to respond to the specific allegation; treating the facts as admitted was arbitrary.
Motifs extraits
A silence-based admission cannot be inferred where the party expressly disputed ownership and advanced contrary facts. The challenged inference was also decisive because it affected the composition of acquêts and the liquidation claim.
