Sintesi Omnilex

Scarpa ceased making maintenance advances after the criminal judge found that the debtor could be expected to pay CHF 700 per month. The court held that this assessment did not authorize Scarpa to discontinue the advances. The requested cessation was therefore not justified.

Massima Omnilex

LARPA 11; maintenance advances may not be stopped solely because a criminal judge has assessed that the debtor can be expected to pay CHF 700 per month. Such an assessment does not by itself eliminate the basis for continuing advances; the decisive question remains whether the statutory conditions for cessation are actually met.
