Key legal question
Whether the refusal of a Patent H for a DVD rental shop was arbitrary under Art. 22 LED
Extracted holding
The cantonal court did not act arbitrarily in finding that the applicant's activity was commercial, not cultural, within the meaning of Art. 22 LED.
Extracted reasoning
The shop mainly rents and sells DVDs for home use; advisory service and a viewing corner do not make the activity equivalent to a cinema, theater, or concert venue requiring on-site consumption and interruption-based catering.
