90-year-old great grandmother beats council satellite dish case

A judge has thrown out a prosecution against a 90-year-old Dublin woman who faced court and a hefty legal bill for having an "unauthorised" satellite dish on the front of her house.

Great grandmother, Anne Rudd, of St Enda's Road, Terenure, was forced to come to court after she was summoned by Dublin City Council which had sought an order for legal costs.
