5A_263/2026: Non-admission of the appeal concerning bankruptcy opening over A.________ GmbH
Summary of Facts
The A.________ GmbH, which is engaged in the trade of weapons, ammunition, and leisure articles, was declared bankrupt by decision of the Civil Court Basel-Stadt on 5 February 2026 following a petition by the Canton of Basel-Stadt in debt enforcement no. xxx. The Court of Appeal of the Canton of Basel-Stadt dismissed the appeal filed by A.________ GmbH against this decision on 27 February 2026. A.________ GmbH then filed a civil appeal with the Federal Supreme Court and requested the annulment of the bankruptcy and, subsidiarily, the remittance to the lower court.
Summary of Considerations
The Federal Supreme Court confirms the admissibility of the appeal and clarifies the scope of review. In ordinary appeal proceedings, the law is reviewed de novo. New facts and evidence are only admitted to a limited extent; genuine novelties are inadmissible. The appellant alleged a violation of the right to be heard because a submission dated 19 February 2026 was not considered by the Court of Appeal. The Federal Supreme Court held that this was procedurally correct since the appeal deadline had already expired. The Federal Supreme Court set out the requirements for proving liquidity according to Art. 174 para. 2 of the Swiss Debt Enforcement and Bankruptcy Act (SchKG). Specifically, the debtor must prove that he has sufficient liquid means to meet his due debts. The lower court had found that A.________ GmbH was unable to pay due debts amounting to CHF 14,587.70 because no liquid assets were proven and thus its liquidity could not be credibly demonstrated. The Federal Supreme Court considers this assessment correct. The appeal is ultimately dismissed as neither a violation of the right to be heard nor an arbitrary finding of fact could be proven. The appellant's request for legal aid is also dismissed as the appeal is considered hopeless.
Summary of Dispositive
The appeal is dismissed and the request for legal aid is rejected. The court costs are imposed on the appellant.
5A_779/2025: Non-admission of the appeal concerning maintenance issues after separation
Summary of Facts
A.________ and B.________, married since 2013, have two children together. After their separation in May 2019, the separate living arrangements and maintenance obligations for the children were set in two decisions by the Civil Court of the District of La Côte. A.________ filed several legal remedies, including against the obligation to pay child support and the issuance of a debtor notice. His request for measures, including the introduction of alternating custody and adjustment of maintenance payments, was dismissed by the cantonal authorities.
Summary of Considerations
The appeal meets the formal requirements. Constitutional complaints can only be raised against first-instance measures. The interventions must be justified in detail; mere expressions of opinion are insufficient. The appellant alleged insufficient investigation of the respondent's income. The principle of equivalence between natural and monetary maintenance was examined, and the Federal Supreme Court found the lower court's reasoning not arbitrary. Regarding the reduction of working hours, A.________ invoked the care of his newborn child. The lower court concluded that he had not sufficiently sought an alternative solution (e.g., childcare). This assessment was confirmed. The application of hypothetical income was examined. Since A.________ could not prove that the reduction of his income was absolutely necessary, the attribution was confirmed, including retroactively. Transport and parking costs were not recognized because no indispensable necessity for a vehicle was evident. The rental costs for a parking space were not considered for similar reasons as in E.6. A.________ argued that the debtor notice impaired his subsistence minimum. However, since no additional items were recognized, this criticism is unfounded. The refusal of legal aid due to lack of prospects of success was contested. The court found that the lower court had inadequately justified this and remitted the matter for renewed examination.
Summary of Dispositive
The appeal is partially upheld. The decision on legal aid is lifted and remitted to the lower court for renewed examination. Court costs are imposed on the appellant, and a reduced party compensation is awarded to him.
6F_3/2026: Non-admission of the appeal concerning revision of a non-admission decision
Summary of Facts
The petitioner was convicted by penal order of the Public Prosecutor's Office Frauenfeld for property damage with significant damage and trespassing. After his objection was declared withdrawn by the District Court Frauenfeld, the Federal Supreme Court did not admit a later appeal. With a new petition, the petitioner requested the revision of this non-admission decision.
Summary of Considerations
- **E.1:** The Federal Supreme Court explains that decisions of this court generally acquire legal force and can only be revised under certain, exhaustively regulated statutory conditions (Art. 121-123 BGG). It refers to the requirements for a revision petition, especially naming a statutory ground for revision.
- **E.2:** In the present case, the petitioner does not demonstrate a statutory ground for revision and essentially repeats objections that were already subject of the previous proceedings. Therefore, the petition is deemed inadmissible.
- **E.3:** The Federal Supreme Court emphasizes that it is not competent for criminal complaints.
- **E.4:** Due to the obvious inadmissibility of the petition, it is not admitted; an order for costs is exceptionally waived.
- **E.5:** It is expressly pointed out that further obviously inadmissible revision petitions in this matter may remain without formal treatment.
Summary of Dispositive
The Federal Supreme Court does not admit the revision petition and imposes no costs. The judgment is communicated to the relevant parties in writing.
