Art. 49 paras. 1-2 ZEG; Arts. 56-57 OG; competence of the Federal Court regarding the ancillary consequences of divorce. The Federal Court may, when seized of a divorce appeal, also adjudicate the ancillary consequences if it modifies the cantonal divorce dispositive or the finding on fault. The ancillary consequences are not to be treated as a separate matter excluded from federal review merely because they involve the application of cantonal law; rather, they form part of the divorce judgment as a whole, which the divorce judge is generally called upon to determine ex officio or upon request. The earlier restrictive case law is abandoned and the prior practice restored.
