Question juridique clé
Whether the Swiss authorities could recognize the German insolvency proceeding under Art. 167 LDIP despite the heir's objections.
Solution extraite
Yes. For recognition, it is sufficient that assets or patrimonial rights in Switzerland are made plausible; full proof is not required.
Motifs extraits
The banking extract produced by the foreign administrator made it plausible that the deceased had substantial assets at a Lugano branch shortly before death. The court could rely on plausibility at this stage and left open later inventory or restitution actions.
