Jury sworn in for trial of FitzPatrick and two former Anglo executives

The jury of eight men and seven women was sworn in over the course of two hours at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court yesterday. The trial is due to begin on Wednesday at 11am.
It is the first time a jury of 15 has been used, as provided for by an amendment last year to the 1976 Juries Act. The amendment allows for enlarged juries for lengthy trials.
