Whimsical Court Farce – A stick figure and a missing parking ticket

Date:

That court hearing, which went into the first round at the regional court in Feldkirch on Wednesday, seems rather bizarre. An employee of the municipality of Bregenz would not have issued a ticket to a colleague despite the lack of a parking ticket. Instead, he would have left a stick figure with his tongue on the car…

Specifically, it concerns a stick figure that the suspect has stuck out with his tongue. He would have confirmed this on his colleague’s windshield last September. Which in itself is not objectionable. However, the car that the woman had parked in Bregenz’s Bergmannstrae did not have a parking ticket. And according to the law, that cannot be punished with a smiley, but with a ticket of 20 euros.

suspect superior
The 52-year-old suspect now has to answer to court for abuse of office. But he pleads innocent and suspects that his superior has staged an act, which he also blames for the bad mood within the department: “I don’t even know where the note suddenly came from. I put that of my colleague back on the windscreen in the spring.”

It is interesting that the supervisor called as a witness discovered this note on the car of the former colleague more than half a year later, but claims to have seen no parking ticket. And neither does he issue a ticket for the violation, nor does any other law enforcement officer on the scene with the regulator. Instead, the creative colleague is eventually charged with abuse of office. Need more witnesses. process suspended.
