Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the historic right to free water supply could be terminated or abolished after 30 years
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The water-supply obligation could be treated as terminable or abatable, whether as an old ground charge or as an analogous obligation limited by time.
Extrahierte Begründung
The court held that an old water-supply duty tied to the property was subject to the termination rules by analogy with ground charges; perpetual obligations are incompatible with the legal order, and the challenged right could not remain unlimited in time.
