Abused woman 'will be treated sensitively over court costs'
A mother of two who is facing a legal bill of €500,000 after losing a court battle against the State will be treated sensitively, an official body said today.
The State Claims Agency will be meeting lawyers for Louise O’Keeffe, 41, who was sexually abused by her teacher in the 1970s, over the next few days to consider the matter of costs.
