Supreme Court of Rhode Island

Peter Montaquila v. Peter F. Neronha

March 2, 2023

Summary

The Supreme Court held that the Attorney General’s denial of the petitioner’s concealed‑carry license was not supported by legally competent evidence and set aside the denial, ordering the permit to be issued. The Court also interpreted G.L. 1956 § 12‑1‑12 using its plain meaning, finding it does not require destruction of all records.
