Smyth gets costs after defending Lowry action
Judge Margaret Heneghan told barrister Eoin McCullough SC, for Mr Smyth, that Mr Smyth was entitled to his costs and refused to grant a stay on her order pending an appeal of all issues to the High Court.
In January, the judge refused Mr Lowry, of Holy Cross, Thurles, a declaration that he had been defamed by Mr Smyth on TV3’s Tonight with Vincent Browne and in an Irish Independent article.
