    (ANSA) - Milan, April 14 - Silvio Berlusconi won't be able to run for office or hold any official political or administrative positions until November 2019 even though he saw one of two bans run out Tuesday.
    Under the terms of the 2012 Severino law, in fact, he is still banned for six years starting from when he was ejected from the Senate in November 2013.
    The three-time former premier could get that reduced by a year under appeal to the Italian high court.
    He is appealing to the European Court of Human Rights to have it lifted entirely, on the grounds it was applied retroactively.
