Key legal question
Whether the cantonal court committed arbitrariness in finding that negotiations between the parties continued until 26 November 2001.
Extracted holding
The finding was not arbitrary; the court could rely on the parties' correspondence and the tenant's own letters.
Extracted reasoning
Even without frequent contacts, the evidence allowed the conclusion that negotiations were still underway until the tenant refused to sign the proposed agreements. The tenant's letters of 22 March and 17 April 2002 expressly referred to negotiations and a possible agreement on the handover date.
