A Naples court on Thursday upheld
new Campania Governor Vincenzo De Luca's urgent petition against
a suspension from office on the basis of an anti-corruption law.
The ruling means that De Luca, a member of Premier Matteo
Renzi's centre-left Democratic Party (PD), will be able to take
part in his first regional assembly meeting and appoint his
executive. The ban, stemming from an abuse-of-office conviction
from De Luca's term as mayor of Salerno, has been lifted pending
the court's ruling on his appeal against it.
