GAA star sees case adjourned again

The case of former Tyrone footballer and BBC television pundit Owen Mulligan has been adjourned again — this time to allow Mr Mulligan’s legal team to study submissions handed in to Listowel District Court yesterday on behalf of the State.

Mr Mulligan, aged 34, of Church St, Cookstown, Co Tyrone, is contesting a charge of refusing to provide a blood or urine sample at Listowel Garda Station when ordered to do so by a garda after being arrested on suspicion of drink-driving in Listowel town centre on August 29, 2014.

He had been attending a wedding in the town on the occasion of his arrest, he told the court in September. Mr Mulligan said he had drunk one glass of wine with his meal.
