Emergency Suspended Sentences Law Could Come Within Two Weeks

12/5/2016

 
Picture
Emergency legislation to provide for the activation of suspended sentences is likely to be presented within two weeks after the relevant sections of the Criminal Justice Act 2006 were struck down.

The High Court last month found that the provisions are unconstitutional because they allow for significantly different treatment of people before the law in relation to their rights of appeal.

Making final orders in the case, Mr Justice Michael Moriarty yesterday struck down sections 99.9 and 99.10 of the Act.

Attorney General Máire Whelan failed in an application for the judge to stop short of striking down the law. Read More

€564,000 For Rally Fan Who Lost His Leg

26/4/2016

 
Picture
A man whose leg was amputated after he was struck by a car taking part in an international rally event has secured €564,000 damages.

The award to Blaine Murphy was made after the Court of Appeal rejected as "perverse" a High Court judge's finding he was primarily liable.

The appeal court increased by almost €364,000 the High Court's award of some €199,000 compensation to Mr Murphy, now aged 30, of Cashelmara, Knocknacarra, Galway.

He had appealed the High Court's finding of 66.66pc contributory negligence against him, which had cut his award for injuries suffered as a 19-year-old spectator at the 2005 Galway International Motor Rally.

He sued County Galway Motor Club Ltd, which organised and managed the rally under the auspices of Irish Motorsport Federation Ltd (Motor Sport Ireland), and Motor Sport Ireland Safety Team, which provided safety services for the rally. Read More
