Matter of Willis v. Treder

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Feb 9, 1987
127 A.D.2d 667 (N.Y. App. Div. 1987)

Opinion

February 9, 1987

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (McCarthy, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

In denying the petitioner's application for a pistol license, the respondent found that a false statement had been made on the petitioner's application when the petitioner denied ever suffering from a mental illness.

This determination was neither arbitrary and capricious, nor an abuse of discretion. Penal Law § 400.00 (1) provides, in relevant part, that no firearms license shall be issued until an investigation and finding that all statements on the application are true. Mollen, P.J., Thompson, Brown and Niehoff, JJ., concur.
