Question juridique clé
Whether the spouse maintenance amount of CHF 3,800 should be increased based on the husband’s income and expense calculation.
Solution extraite
The maintenance amount remained unchanged; the husband’s income was slightly higher than assumed, but the wife could and should earn more, so no adjustment was warranted.
Motifs extraits
The court accepted some corrections to the husband’s income (private car benefit and occasional fees) but found the difference marginal in light of the wife’s higher earning capacity and the discretionary nature of maintenance calculation.
