The Regional Jurisdictional Section for Campania of the Court of Auditors, with sentence no. 185/2026 filed today, has in fact entirely rejected the compensation claim brought by the Regional Prosecutor’s Office against the Autonomous Body «Giffoni Experience» and four of its representatives: the president of the Autonomous Body Giffoni Experience, Pietro Rinaldi; the director and founder, Claudio Gubitosi; the RUP Enzo Barletta and the head of the logistics service, Mariapia Montuori, charging the Prosecutor’s Office with the payment of defense costs in favor of each defendant.

The Prosecutor had quantified the alleged financial damage at 468,908.66 euros, contesting the management of the transport service for guests and jurors of the festival between 2016 and 2022. The Court rejected the claim decisively, qualifying it as of «total unfoundedness».

The contract with the awarded cooperative provided for a global flat fee, making legally irrelevant the origin of the individual vehicles used for the service, an aspect recognized by the Prosecutor’s Office itself in the citation.

The service was always regularly performed. The Court ascertained that there was never any interruption or disruption in the transport of guests and jurors, a circumstance not even contested by the Prosecutor’s Office.
