Questão jurídica principal
Whether the appeal against the custody transfer was admissible and well founded
Decisão extraída
The appeal was admissible in principle, but the complaints were mostly insufficiently reasoned or based on inadmissible new facts; substantively, the custody transfer was not contrary to federal law.
Fundamentação extraída
The Federal Court applied the strict reasoning requirements for appeals and found many objections to be merely appellatory or new. On the merits, the cantonal court could find a continuing endangerment of the child’s welfare and order the least severe effective measure.
