French court rules Maurice the rooster can keep crowing; rejects complaint from neighbors who sued over noise nuisance.
PARIS — Maurice the rooster can keep crowing, a French court ruled Thursday, as it rejected a complaint from neighbors who sued over noise nuisance.
Maurice's owner, Corinne Fesseau, will be able to keep the rooster on the small island of Oleron, off France's Atlantic coast, the court decided. Maurice's dawn crowing is exasperating Fesseau's neighbors, a retired couple who moved to the island two years ago. They asked the court to make the animal move farther away, or shut up.
Their case also backfired in the court of public opinion, at least locally. More than 120,000 people signed a petition urging authorities to leave Maurice alone — and a"support committee" made up of roosters and hens from around the region came to support his owner during the trial in July.The ruling may spell good news for a group of ducks in the Landes region of southwest France, where a trial is under way between farmers and neighbors angry over the creatures' quacks and smell.
