Mayor's Appeal Against Acquittal on Municipal Ordinance Violation Ruled Inadmissible
France (FR)
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe appeal filed by a municipal mayor, acting as a civil party, against a police court judgment that acquitted an individual charged with violating a municipal ordinance and dismissed the civil damages claim, was deemed inadmissible because a municipality does not have the right to initiate proceedings before a repressive tribunal concerning breaches of police regulations, as these regulations serve the general interest, not the private interests of the communes, and their enforcement is exclusively reserved for the Public Prosecutor's action seeking application of penal law.
