Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the commitment to a psychiatric institution under Art. 397a(2) ZGB was justified because of the burden placed on the surrounding environment.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The commitment was justified; the level of aggression created a serious burden, beyond mere annoyance, sufficient for institutional placement.
Extrahierte Begründung
The court reiterated that the threshold for burden on the surroundings is very high and that mere nuisance is not enough. Here, however, repeated refusal of medication and escalating aggression toward caregivers showed a substantial and concrete strain on the nursing-home environment.
