Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the KESB had to enter into the child's discharge/replacement request under Art. 426(4) ZGB.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The refusal to enter was unlawful; the request was not abusive and had to be examined without delay.
Extrahierte Begründung
In this sensitive deprivation-of-liberty context, rights of the child and close relatives are broadly protected. A request may be refused only in cases of clearly unreasonable repetitive, querulous filings. A request made two days after an earlier inadmissibility ruling, but about four weeks after the placement, was not such an abuse.
