An application by former solicitor Michael Lynn to adjourn his trial for alleged fraud due to start before a jury next Monday has been rejected by the High Court.

Mr Justice Charles Meenan was satisfied Circuit Court Judge Martin Nolan, who twice rejected similar applications in the last two months, was correct in his decision.
