Questão jurídica principal
Whether the wife's long-time full-time work in the husband's business entitled her to equitable compensation under Art. 165(1) CC
Decisão extraída
Yes. Her collaboration was notably superior to ordinary family support and entitled her in principle to compensation.
Fundamentação extraída
She worked full-time for six years, without salary or employment contract, performed daily client service and bill payment, and also handled household work. The work was necessary to keep the business viable and caused negative consequences for her reintegration into work. The cantonal court failed to consider the decisive criteria properly.
