Lawlor legal costs decision expected today

The Supreme Court will give a decision on the direction of costs incurred by Liam Lawlor in his appeal against the severity of the sentence imposed on him for contempt.

Last week the Supreme Court said the return of Liam Lawlor to Mountjoy Jail for failing to co-operate with the Flood Tribunal could be delayed, to allow Mr Lawlor spend Christmas in New York.
