Questão jurídica principal
Whether the guardianship authority had urgent jurisdiction under Art. 315a(3) ZGB instead of the divorce court.
Decisão extraída
Yes. Because the divorce court could not be expected to act in time, the guardianship authority could order immediate child-protection measures.
Fundamentação extraída
The court held that the prognosis under Art. 315a(3) ZGB is whether the court is likely to be able to act in time, not whether it might have been asked earlier. Here the divorce proceedings had stalled, the court had not acted despite being alerted to the child's welfare, and the situation was urgent after two emergency hospitalizations.
