Art. 9 Bundesgesetz vom 18. Dezember 1987 über das Internationale Privatrecht (IPRG)
IPRG; 1. Kapitel: Gemeinsame Bestimmungen; XI. Rechtshängigkeit
Art. 9 IPRG
Ist eine Klage über denselben Gegenstand zwischen denselben Parteien zuerst im Ausland hängig gemacht worden, so setzt das schweizerische Gericht das Verfahren aus, wenn zu erwarten ist, dass das ausländische Gericht in angemessener Frist eine Entscheidung fällt, die in der Schweiz anerkennbar ist.
Zur Feststellung, wann eine Klage in der Schweiz hängig gemacht worden ist, ist der Zeitpunkt der ersten, für die Klageeinleitung notwendigen Verfahrenshandlung massgebend. Als solche genügt die Einleitung des Sühneverfahrens.
Das schweizerische Gericht weist die Klage zurück, sobald ihm eine ausländische Entscheidung vorgelegt wird, die in der Schweiz anerkannt werden kann.
