Curtin set to challenge Oireachtas committee

JUDGE Brian Curtin’s legal team is considering a High Court challenge to an Oireachtas Committee’s demand that he hand over his computer and files.

It is expected that he will seek a judicial review in the High Court before December 23 when the deadline to respond to the demand for the computer and disks expires, legal sources say.

Judge Curtin was acquitted of possessing child pornography last May.
