Key legal question
Whether the cantonal court violated the appellants' right to be heard by refusing or omitting relevant evidence and failing to address their objections adequately.
Extracted holding
Yes. The cantonal judgment did not withstand scrutiny under Article 29(2) BV because it insufficiently dealt with relevant evidence requests, fact-finding, and the parties' arguments.
Extracted reasoning
The requested evidence was relevant to determining the respondent's domicile and center of life; the cantonal court gave no sufficient reasons for rejecting it, left significant factual questions unexplored, and only superficially addressed key arguments.
