Appeal adjourned for man at centre of Sargent resignation

A man appealing his conviction for an assault that was at the centre of a dispute which ultimately led to the resignation of former Junior Minister Trevor Sargent has had his case adjourned again today.

Travel agency worker Dominic McGowan (aged 31), a constituent of Mr Sargent in north Co Dublin, became embroiled in a row with neighbour Stephen Mulvany (aged 35) in September 2007.
