Judge Christine Fizzano Cannon said the DA’s response to the private complaint was inadequate. She explained the substance of the complaint was not subject to consideration in the appeal and that the remand to trial court may result in the same outcome of the complaint being declined.

A Commonwealth Court panel has sent back to a prosecutor a private criminal complaint against Pittsburgh City Council and the city’s former mayor, which claimed official oppression when it passed a ban on certain firearms.
Judge Christine Fizzano Cannon said the Allegheny County District Attorney’s Office must reconsider the petition, reasoning that District Attorney Stephen A. Zappala Jr. improperly declined to give them due consideration.
