Questão jurídica principal
Whether costs after withdrawal of a divorce action fall under Art. 106(1) CPC or may be allocated at the court's discretion under Art. 107(1)(c) CPC.
Decisão extraída
After withdrawal of a divorce action, costs are governed primarily by Art. 106(1) CPC; family-law character alone does not justify deviation under Art. 107(1)(c) CPC.
Fundamentação extraída
Art. 106(1) CPC expressly treats the withdrawing plaintiff as the losing party. Art. 107 CPC is an exception and, as a 'may' provision, does not create a general rule for all family-law cases. The situation is unlike a divorce by joint petition or a merits judgment. No special circumstances justifying deviation were shown.
