Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the Swiss courts and the district of Lausanne had jurisdiction over the paternity action and maintenance claim
Extrahierter Entscheid
Swiss jurisdiction existed because the mother had her domicile in Switzerland, specifically in the Lausanne area, when the action was filed.
Extrahierte Begründung
Under Art. 66 LDIP, jurisdiction lies at the child's habitual residence or one parent's domicile. The mother had her center of life in the Lausanne region despite illegal stay status and occasional earlier trips abroad; the later residence irregularity did not negate domicile.
