Mr. Duda was maliciously prosecuted Corporal Calcagni, which was condoned by Chief White, when he lawfully carried a firearm, pursuant to a license to carry firearms, into the Oley Township Police Depa ... rtment. The Township, after realizing it was not illegal, instead of withdrawing the charges, continued to prosecute Mr. Duda while it enacted an illegal ordinance, pursuant to 18 PA.C.S. 6120, to prevent individuals from carrying firearms in any Township building, including the police department. Oley later rescinded that ordinance, after being informed that it was illegal; however, Chief White was quoted as stating that he would continue to enforce it as a policy. The case was later settled for $25,000.
