AI generated

The court dismissed the enforcement of an administrative penalty imposed on the defendant for illegally possessing firearms. The defendant argued that the administrative body failed to verify the validity of the permit before issuing the penalty, while the opposing party contended the violation was clear on its face. The court ruled that the administrative body bears the burden of proof and must ensure the legality of the permit prior to sanctioning the defendant.
