A case against Seán Murphy, of Mylane Cross, Co Cork, was before Cork District Court yesterday. The matter had come before the court at least 10 times. Judge John King suggested the prospect of a prison sentence “might concentrate Seán Murphy’s mind”.
He adjourned the case until September 26 but made it peremptory against the defendant. “A custodial sentence awaits him if no progress is made,” said Judge King.
