Giovanni De Falco
Giovanni Raffaele Francesco De Falco (28 May 1818 – 25 February 1886) was an Italian politician, magistrate and senator of the Kingdom of Italy.
His father Nicola was the lord of Bracigliano, while his mother Agnese belonged to a wealthy local family, the Amatos.
After the unification of Italy he was appointed Attorney General at the Court of Cassation of Rome (13 January 1876 -25 February 1886)[4] and later served as a member of the Diplomatic Litigation Council (1885).
[1] As Justice Minister, De Falco led two initiatives to furnish the new Kingdom of Italy with a single criminal code.
In 1866 he brought forward a draft code he had been working on since 1864, but parliament failed to pass it.
