Question juridique clé
Whether the cantonally fixed sureties of CHF 1.4 million were arbitrary under Art. 273 LP.
Solution extraite
Yes. The appellate court had to reassess the sureties because it could not infer a loss of plausibility of the claim from the refusal of exequatur alone, and the damage basis was insufficiently established.
Motifs extraits
A refusal of exequatur does not by itself show that the attachment claim lost plausibility. When sureties are ordered after the attachment, the applicant must substantiate the damage caused by the immobilization of assets; this was not sufficiently shown here for the investment-loss component.
