Inobhutnahme minderjähriger Flüchtlinge bei Kontakterhalt mit den Eltern

This work deals with the legal problems of custody procedures. In particular, methods of age determination and alternatives to the appointment of guardians for cases in which unaccompanied minor refugees have good contact with their parents abroad are presented. Alternatives discussed include supplementary guardianship and power of attorney for custody. These alternatives must be examined because a suspension of parental custody must be established for a guardianship to be ordered, and this represents a strong encroachment on the parents’ rights.
