Omnilex summary

The Swiss Federal Court took note of the appellant wife's withdrawal of her constitutional appeal against the judgment of the Tribunal civil de la Gruyère in provisional measures proceedings. It struck the case from the docket, ordered no judicial costs and no party compensation, and declared the pending legal aid request moot.

Omnilex headnote

Art. 73 PCF by analogy via Art. 71 LTF; Art. 32 al. 2 LTF: upon withdrawal of the appeal, the Federal Court takes note thereof and strikes the case from the docket; the proceedings are terminated without a merits decision. In such a situation, where the circumstances so warrant, no judicial costs are charged and no party compensation is awarded. A pending request for legal aid becomes moot once the appeal is withdrawn and there is no longer a need to decide the merits of the application.
