Question juridique clé
Whether Art. 63 KOV applies to a claim already pending in a foreign lawsuit at the relevant time.
Solution extraite
Art. 63 KOV does not apply to proceedings pending abroad; the liquidator must rule on the admitted claim in Switzerland.
Motifs extraits
Art. 63 KOV is based on Art. 207 SchKG and presupposes the suspension of pending proceedings by Swiss authorities. That statutory mechanism only operates for proceedings in Switzerland, so it cannot deprive the Swiss liquidator of competence or the claim of ordinary collateral challenge proceedings.
