Former TD’s right to fair trial breached, court hears
Mr Cosgrave and businessman James Kennedy are separately seeking orders from the Supreme Court stopping their trials over alleged corrupt payments in relation to rezoning of lands in Carrickmines, owned by Jackson Way Properties in 1992 and the successful rezoning of part of these lands in 1997.
In the High Court last July, Mr Justice John Hedigan rejected both men’s separate judicial review applications and their appeals against that decision came before the Supreme Court yesterday.
