IN RE: THE APPEAL OF MICHAEL A. D'ANTONIO FROM THE DENIAL OF AN APPLICATION FOR A PERMIT TO CARRY A HANDGUN. (2010)

Michael D'Antonio appeals from an order denying his application for a permit to carry a handgun.   We affirm.

D'Antonio filed an application for a permit to carry a handgun with the Allendale Police Department.   His application was denied by the Chief of Police and he appealed to the Law Division.

Judge Jonathan N. Harris conducted a hearing and issued an extensive written opinion that summarizes the evidence received at the hearing, which we substantially adopt here, and sets forth in detail his reasons for denying the application.   The appellant has presented the following issues in this appeal:

POINT I

THE TRIAL JUDGE ASSUMED PERSONAL INFORMATION CONTRARY TO FACTS ESTABLISHED IN THE TRANSCRIPT.

POINT II

THE TRIAL JUDGE USED CASE LAW OF HIS CHOICE IN DECIDING THE CASE AS THE PROSECUTOR DID NOT SUBMIT CASE LAW IN THE STATE'S PRESENTATION.

POINT III

THE TRIAL JUDGE ERRED IN APPLICATION OF N.J.S.A. 2C:58-4(c), (d).

POINT IV

THE TRIAL JUDGE ERRED IN UNDERSTANDING [IN RE PREIS, 118 N.J. 564 (1990).]

POINT V

THE TRIAL JUDGE ERRED IN UNDERSTANDING [STATE v. SIMA, 142 N.J.Super.   187 (APP.DIV.1976), AFF'D O.B., 75 N.J. 72 (1977).]

After careful review of the record and briefs, we are satisfied that none of these arguments has any merit and affirm, substantially for the reasons set forth in Judge Harris's written opinion.

Affirmed.
