ATA/738/1998•Restaurant operator permit suspension and fine upheld
ATA/738/1998Corte di giustizia / Camera amministrativa24 nov 1998Confirmed
Estratto da Omnilex
The court confirmed a six-month suspension of a restaurant operating authorization and a CHF 3,000 fine against a permit holder who had acted as a straw man for profit. The appellant argued that his regular presence in the establishment showed genuine involvement, but the court held that these visits were too limited in daily duration to disprove the sham arrangement. The sanction was therefore maintained in full.
LRDBH.12; suspension of an operating authorization and fine imposed on a straw man in the restaurant sector. Where a permit holder merely lends his name while another person effectively runs the business and the arrangement is motivated by profit, the authority may sanction by suspending the operating authorization and imposing a fine. Occasional or regular presence in the establishment does not preclude a straw-man finding if it is insufficient to demonstrate genuine operational control (consid. not specified).

Whether the six-month suspension of the operating authorization was justified.
The suspension was upheld.
The court accepted that the permit holder acted as a straw man with the intent to enrich himself; his regular visits to the establishment did not suffice to negate that role because they were not of sufficient daily duration.
Whether the fine of CHF 3,000 was justified.
The fine was upheld.
Given the established straw-man conduct and profit motive, the monetary sanction remained appropriate.
