High Court approves €4.5m settlement for child with cerebral palsy
The High Court has approved a €4.5m settlement to a 17-year-old Cork girl who has cerebral palsy due to asphyxia at birth.
Jessica O'Brien's mother Joanne, from Duntaheen Road, Fermoy, told the judge she had tried to start legal proceedings a long time ago but the first solicitors she approached told her she had no case.
