Father claims son received sub-standard respite care

David Cotter from Blarney St, Cork City, has sued the HSE and the Cope Foundation where his son was in respite in Montenotte, Cork, in January 1992.
Opening the case, senior counsel John O’Mahony said it was a very tragic and sad case. Bryan Cotter, he said, was a young man who had a moderate handicap and lead a quiet, normal life and was treasured and cherished by members of his family.
