Question juridique clé
Whether a request for guardianship can still be withdrawn during proceedings before the Verwaltungsgericht after the measure has been ordered on the party's own request.
Solution extraite
No. Once guardianship has been pronounced on the party's own request, the request cannot be withdrawn in the appellate proceedings before the Verwaltungsgericht.
Motifs extraits
The court relied on Art. 372 ZGB, § 123 EGZGB and §§ 66 ff. VRG. It followed BGE 102 II 190 that federal law does not provide a withdrawal possibility, and the cantonal law likewise contains none. The objections against allowing revocation of the request in the ordinary appeal stage also apply to the cantonal procedure.
