David Caplan for petitioner. W. Bernard Richland, Corporation Counsel, for respondent.

Archibald v. Codd

Opinion of the Court

Samuel A. Spiegel, J.

Application to direct the respondent to issue an on-premises pistol license is granted only to the extent of directing respondent to make a final determination on petitioner’s application within 45 days after service of a copy of the order to be settled hereon. It is clear that respondent has failed to act, although he has had a considerable period of time to máke a determination. In these circumstances, the court does not rule on whether the application should be granted, but only that a determination is required to be made within a reasonable time.
