Massima Omnilex

LRDBH 12, 21 al. 1; interdiction pour le titulaire du certificat de capacité de servir de prête-nom; confirmation d'une suspension professionnelle et d'une amende. Le titulaire du certificat de capacité qui met son nom à disposition de l'exploitant réel d'un établissement public contrevient à l'exigence d'exploitation personnelle et loyale. Une suspension de l'exercice de la profession peut être maintenue lorsqu'elle vise à garantir le respect des conditions d'autorisation; l'amende administrative peut être cumulée si la violation est établie et la sanction apparaît proportionnée.
