Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the Geneva court arbitrarily treated the wife as having renounced first-instance witness evidence and could therefore refuse new evidence on appeal.
Decisione estratta
The cantonal court was entitled to rely on the hearing record and to hold that the wife had waived the requested witness examinations; no arbitrariness was shown.
Motivazione estratta
A hearing record is presumed accurate under Geneva practice unless its content is disproved. A mere denial did not suffice, and the wife produced no concrete evidence contradicting the record.
