Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the opening of divorce proceedings deprived the protective-measures court of jurisdiction for the period before divorce lis pendens.
Decisione estratta
Protective measures remain within the separation court's competence for the period before divorce lis pendens; after lis pendens only divorce proceedings govern future measures.
Motivazione estratta
The decisive cutoff is the moment the divorce action becomes pending. Measures already ordered before that moment remain effective unless changed by divorce interim measures; pending separation proceedings are not rendered moot.
