Jury discharged after judge falls ill
The jury in the murder trial of a 42-year-old Louth man has been discharged after the presiding judge fell ill after the first day of the case.
It was decided today that Mr Justice Andrias O’Caoimh will now take over the trial from Mr Justice Diarmuid O’Donovan. The trial was adjourned until next Monday when a fresh panel of twelve jurists will be sworn in before Mr Justice O’Caoimh.
