A Rockville Centre man was charged with two counts of disturbing the peace for having laughed too loudly within his own home at 6:00 p.m. in the evening. The man, who retained attorney Andrew J. Campanelli, was “slapped with” the two summonses because his next-door neighbor complained that he could hear his laughter from across his adjacent driveway.
“The last time I checked, it was not a crime to laugh — except in Rockville Centre,’’ attorney Campanelli said.
After a written motion to dismiss was filed by attorney Campanelli in the Village Court, both charges were dismissed.
