Key legal question
Whether the applicant made a sufficiently credible interest for land register access under Art. 970(2) ZGB.
Extracted holding
No. A general business interest in surveying municipalities for possible transactions is not a sufficiently protected interest.
Extracted reasoning
Access requires a credible legal or factual interest with a close link to the requested disclosure. The applicant sought broad market reconnaissance rather than information about specific parcels it intended to acquire or encumber; that amounts to impermissible scouting of the land register.
