Return of Litigation Cost Advance After Final Judgment and Legal Aid Grant
Sintesi Legislator
Generato dall'IAThe lower court initially ordered one spouse to pay the other a litigation cost advance of a specified amount, which resulted in the issuance of a certificate of loss (Verlustschein) after execution proceedings. Subsequently, the final divorce judgment allocated court costs equally and compensated party costs without addressing the advance, and the recipient of the advance was also granted partial legal aid. The higher court ruled that the obligation to return the cost advance arises when the legal basis for the advance payment ceases to exist, absent any other court order, reasoning that the certificate of loss represents a claim whose legal foundation has subsequently lapsed, and since the recipient spouse has recourse through legal aid for their own costs, they must return the certificate of loss to the other spouse.
