What the files show

The marital protection decision of 17 November 2023 entitles and obliges the father to three holiday weeks per year; no more than seven days may be taken consecutively. For the single failure of the regular visitation right during the second autumn holiday week, the decision denies a claim for compensation.

Request and opposing position

For this aspect, no separate additional motion is determinative; the analysis compares the documented state of the case files with the outcome.

The decision denies a claim for compensation for the one-time non-occurrence of the ordinary visitation right during the second week of the autumn holidays.

Checkpoint

The precise legal scope of a claim for replacement or compensation must be distinguished from the question of which specific holiday blocks the continuing title provides for and how they are determined in the individual case.

LawReport-Classification

This contribution separates the vacation entitlement established in the title, the concrete exercise thereof, and the question of a claim for replacement or compensation. These levels must not be mixed: the existence of an annual entitlement does not automatically entail any desired choice of dates; conversely, any deviation from the specifically requested scope must remain comprehensible on the basis of the reasoning.

What does not follow from this

The documented proceedings substantiate the mentioned motions, statements and decisional steps. They do not, without more, demonstrate personal motives, bias, abuse of rights or a general unlawfulness. Such further assessments would require additional legal and factual grounds.
