A Wicklow man has had his six year prison sentence for violently assaulting a father in his home reduced to four by the Court of Appeal.

A Wicklow brother and sister who assaulted a man outside his home leaving him with extensive head and facial injuries have been jailed for six years at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.

A brother and sister who assaulted a man outside his own home are to be sentenced next year after a judge ordered a probation report on the pair.
