Man: I did not will half estate to judge’s children

The alleged victim of a district court judge accused of deception has said he never consented to leaving half of his estate to her children

Heather Perrin, aged 60, is accused of attempting to deceive Thomas Davis into bequeathing a large portion of his estate, worth about €1m, to her two children while she operated a solicitor’s practice.

Mr Davis, aged in his 80s, spent the day in the witness box giving evidence of the alleged attempt to alter his will without his knowledge.
