Questão jurídica principal
Whether the father could obtain suppression of adult child maintenance because the son had broken off personal relations and changed his surname.
Decisão extraída
The refusal or breakdown of personal relations was not shown to be exclusively or predominantly attributable to the son; the surname change alone did not justify suppression of maintenance.
Fundamentação extraída
Under Art. 277(2) CC, the entitlement of an adult child in education depends on all circumstances, including personal relations. Modification under Art. 286(2) CC requires a significant and lasting change. The cantonal court did not violate federal law by finding that the later name-change procedure, in the given context, was insufficient to end support.
