A noisy cock has placed residents of Metropolitan France with that rural one against another, as the court ruled he could continue his singing despite complaints from neighbours.
Maurice, a four - year - old cock, cannot be silent, as the court in western France rejected the request for stopping his song.
Jean-Louis Biron, who lives in the town of Rochefort, raised the case against this cock after buying a holiday house near the cockowners of Ile dé Olleron, a small island off the western coast of France.
The two-year dispute has become an international symbol of the cultural clash between the old way of rural life and modern values.
“Today Maurice has won the battle for all of France”, the owner of the cock, Corrine Fesseau.
Biron started complaining to the owners of the cock, Jacky and Corrine Fesseau, about his early singings, but they refused to get rid of their beloved bird.
The cock's call starts at 4:30 in the morning and continues throughout the morning and afternoon”, he wrote in an official letter to his neighbors in 2017.
As the Gaul Maurice continued singing, the quarrel between them escalated, and both sides decided to go to court.
Similar court cases were recorded in France earlier, as opposed to church cows and bells, but the situation of the Gaul Maurice has had the greatest and most exciting effect so far.
