With the sentence 620 of 2016 on Administrative Court of Tuscany looked into the case of a very particular suspended hunting license. In fact, a hunter was reported on the loose for having exploded a rifle shot during a family quarrel, a behavior that cost him precisely the prohibition of possessing weapons. The administrative judges, however, have decided to acquit him because the fact does not exist.
In a nutshell, the man was arguing with his sister-in-law, but it emerged that with the shotgun he did not want to threaten her, on the contrary the intention was to appease the spirits. The police headquarters had definitively revoked the license and at that point the hunter's appeal was inevitable.
According to the findings of the Regional Administrative Court, the facts have been misrepresented, given that there was no desire to threaten and the acquittal of the criminal sentence was not taken into account. So the man will be able to get back the firearms license for hunting use and this sentence will become an important precedent. Should similar situations arise, the same type of appeal can be presented with a good chance that it will be accepted for the same reasons just discussed.
