Convicted motorists to sue State over notices

A Kerry solicitor says some of the motorists he is representing have suffered serious consequences, but there has been no explanation as to how this happened or any disclosure of documents from Garda HQ.
One of his clients, a woman with a family and invalid husband, was sent to Limerick prison as a result, he said. It emerged earlier this year that 14,700 people wrongly received convictions and court-imposed penalties, including the imposition of penalty points, despite never being sent a fixed-charge notice.
