Gardaí may challenge Good Friday pub ruling

AN Garda Síochána are to seek the advice of the Attorney General about a possible High Court appeal against the decision to allow Limerick city pubs open on Good Friday.

A report on Judge Tom O’Donnell’s ruling is being studied at garda headquarters in Dublin and a legal source said the gardaí may go to the High Court, depending on the advice they get from the Attorney General.

If the High Court upholds an appeal, the case could be sent back to Limerick District Court.
