Key legal question
Whether the landlady qualified as an adult person belonging to the debtor’s household under Art. 64 Abs. 1 SchKG.
Extracted holding
No. Persons who merely rent rooms or live in a loose lodging relationship, without a household or domestic relationship with the creditor or debtor’s household, do not fall under Art. 64 Abs. 1 SchKG.
Extracted reasoning
The statutory term covers persons living together with the debtor and belonging to his household, regardless of the legal title. A mere lodger or subtenant who is not a boarder or otherwise part of the household is excluded.
