Key legal question
Whether an economically independent adult child living with parents is exempt from the hospital contribution under Art. 104(2)(a) KVV.
Extracted holding
No. The exemption applies only to family members in a legal maintenance or support relationship; an adult child with own income living with parents does not qualify.
Extracted reasoning
The wording, system, history, and purpose of the rule show that 'family relationship' means the family as a legally protected economic unit, not every shared household. The exemption is meant to reflect family financial burden, which is not comparable where the child is adult, self-supporting, and not under a maintenance or support duty.
