A man accused of throwing a corrosive liquid into another man’s face at his front door in an alleged dispute between them over a partner was offered a trial by judge and jury in the coming weeks but his lawyer sought an adjournment.

Defence barrister Paula McCarthy said a huge amount of material had just been served on the defence by the prosecution and time would be needed to go through the extensive CCTV and documentation.
