Key legal question
Whether the Ethiopian divorce judgment could be recognized in Switzerland despite lacking decisions on child custody, visitation, and maintenance.
Extracted holding
The absence of accessory rulings does not bar recognition on public policy grounds, because the Ethiopian court was not competent to decide those child-related issues.
Extracted reasoning
The Swiss authorities are competent over child protection matters given the child's habitual residence in Switzerland; the principle of unity of divorce judgments is not part of Swiss public policy.
