AUSTRIA-MARTINEZ, J.
As correctly cited by the Solicitor General, it is a settled jurisprudence that a memorandum receipt and mission order cannot take the place of a duly issued firearms license,[23] and an accused who relies on said documents cannot invoke good faith as a defense against a prosecution for illegal possession of firearms, as this is a malum prohibitum.[24] Petitioner interposed no new argument that would convince this Court to abandon a deep-rooted jurisprudence.
