“I am satisfied with the sentence issued yesterday by the Supreme Court of Cassation“he claims the philosopher Gianni Vattimo. “For me it is the end of a persecution – he comments again, speaking with the time.news – I received the ruling at fourteen yesterday that puts a tombstone on this matter. A judicial procedure which, overall, was fortunately very quick” .
The judges of the First Civil Section of the Cassation confirmed the decision of the Turin Civil Court of Appeal, which last November had revoked the provision of opening the support administration for the philosopher. The appeal of the Attorney General of Turin was therefore declared inadmissible and the decision of the appellate judges confirmed, according to which Vattimo “preserved undisputed cognitive and memory skills” and was “capable of controlling the management of his assets, albeit making use of other people “.
In an excerpt of the ermine sentence it is stated that the “diagnoses were in agreement in saying that iProfessor Gianni Vattimo (…) is a lucid person, correctly oriented, available and well prepared for each evaluation; a person who has always been lavish in character, but in any case capable of disposing of his own interests and also of administering money and assets, and of making his own decisions about where to live and how to manage his daily life “.
And what will he tell reporters tomorrow? “First – says the philosopher – I will read the sentence in its entirety, where it is clearly explained that the first provision betrayed ‘a bad understanding of the fundamentals of the institution of support administration’. Then my lawyers, Laura Dutto and Daniela Talarico, who will discuss what happened “.
