Key legal question
Whether the father's duty to support his adult daughter under Art. 277(2) CC was still reasonable despite complete refusal of contact.
Extracted holding
The support obligation was not reasonable because the daughter completely refused any personal contact with her father, and no exceptional circumstances justified continued maintenance.
Extracted reasoning
The court held that adult-child support depends on all circumstances, including the personal relationship. Given the daughter's age, the long lapse of time since the family conflict, and the lack of sufficiently grave paternal fault, her total rejection of any contact made the father's obligation unreasonable.
