12 Ohio Law. Abs. 128

Krawetzke v. Ackerman

Ohio Court of Appeals

Decided May 23, 1932

Ohio Court of Appeals · decided 1932-05-23

Decided 1932-05-23

BY THE COURT

¶1The Constitution gives the right to an owner to defend his property and the evidence in this case shows that is what he was doing. Such defense could not be a violation of an ordinance which, by its terms, prevents firing a gun inside the municipality.

¶2This conclusion renders it unnecessary to determine whether there would be a liability if the ordinance had been violated.

¶3Finding no prejudicial error, the judgment is affirmed.

LLOYD, RICHARDS and WILLIAMS, JJ, concur.
