'C' case adjourned
The case which was the subject of the Supreme Court’s striking down of a law in relation to unlawful carnal knowledge has been adjourned for mention by Judge Katherine Delahunt at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.
Counsel for the man in the ‘C’ case, Ms Marie Torrens BL, told Judge Delahunt that it was "quite clear" that section 1.1 of the 1935 Criminal Law Amendment Act was unconstitutional. She said that the Circuit Criminal Court had no jurisdiction and the Diretor of Public Prosecutions no further function in the case.
