Spanish Court Acquits Pianist Accused of 'Noise Pollution'



Hope you remember an annoying neighbour who filed a law suit against a fellow pianist neighbour for noise pollution.
If found guilty as charged, Laia Martin would have gone to jail but thank goodness he has been acquitted.
TimesLive reports that a Spanish court has acquitted a 27-year-old concert pianist on charges of causing noise pollution and psychological damage to a neighbour.
According to a written ruling issued on Tuesday, the court in north-eastern Girona absolved professional pianist Laia Martin and her parents of both charges.
The trial this month caused a storm when prosecutors sought a sentence of seven years.
They later reduced this to 20 months.
Martin's upstairs neighbour, Sonia Bosom, complained that the pianist practiced five days a week for eight hours at a sitting between 2003 and 2007.
The court said it found Bosom's claims unreliable and exaggerated.
