Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the maintenance order could be modified because of changed circumstances and an imputed income could be retained for the father.
Decisione estratta
The appellate court was entitled to find a durable and significant change and to impute a net monthly income of CHF 4,500 to the father.
Motivazione estratta
The father had been unemployed for years but remained healthy, had training and experience, and had to intensify efforts for lower-qualified work given his duty to support minor children; family-law standards allow imputed income even if unemployment benefits or social assistance are received.
