Kernrechtsfrage
Whether custody of the minor child should be awarded to the father or the mother under Art. 176 CC.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Custody had to be awarded to the father because the cantonal court ignored the stability criterion and overemphasized the mother’s schedule; the child had already been living with the father for more than six months.
Extrahierte Begründung
Where parental capacities are equivalent, the child’s stability and the current caregiving situation are decisive. The mother’s schedule was not sufficiently more suitable to outweigh the child’s established living arrangement with the father.
