Which court for a rental and franchise agreement?

Which court is competent to rule on a related rental and franchise agreement?

One of Bruna’s franchisees demanded, among other things, that Bruna properly comply with the (sub)lease agreement, because Bruna believes that the lease has ended because the related franchise agreement has ended.

Pursuant to Article 93 under c Rv, the subdistrict court judge, among other things, deals with and decides: cases concerning a rental agreement, regardless of the course or value of the claim. See the subdistrict court of the Central Netherlands court 1 December 2017, ECLI:NL:RBMNE:2017:6314.
