Résumé Omnilex

The Tribunal administratif dismissed the appeal in substance and confirmed the administrative sanction imposed on the catering certificate holder. The appellant had been suspended from practicing for 12 months and fined CHF 3,000. The court relied on the fact that he was a repeat offender and found no basis to alter the sanction.

Regeste Omnilex

LRDBH.12; suspension of a catering certificate and administrative fine for recidivism. Where the addressee of a professional sanction is a repeat offender, the reviewing court will uphold the measure if the authority remained within the statutory framework and the sanction is not shown to be manifestly excessive. Recidivism is a relevant aggravating circumstance justifying both a temporary suspension from practice and a monetary fine.
