€40k for escalator fall lost on appeal
Elizabeth Lavin, aged 69, of Blackhall, Calverstown, Kilcullen, Co Kildare, has already received a part payment of €25,000 from the Dublin Airport Authority, which was the basis on which the DAA was permitted to bring an appeal against the award.
When Kieran Fleck, counsel for the DAA, raised the matter of the part payment with the appeal court, Mr Justice Michael Peart said it appeared the court had no function in that regard and it may have to be brought back before the High Court.
