Mother who sued over care at Kerry General Hospital faces massive legal bill

A mother who sued over her care at Kerry General Hospital when she was having her second baby is now facing a massive legal bill after a High Court judge yesterday dismissed her case.

Mr Justice Sean Ryan said Ciara Hamilton, of Brackhill, Castlemaine, Co Kerry, had not made out a case against the HSE.

Awarding the costs of the week-long action to the HSE, the judge put a stay on the order for three months, or in the event that the woman decides to appeal the decision.
