The sentencing of former solicitor Michael Lynn, who was found guilty of stealing nearly €18m from six banks, has been adjourned to allow the defence to get a psychological report.
Lynn, 55, was due to face a sentence hearing at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court on Monday, but defence barrister Paul Comiskey O'Keeffe BL asked that the case be adjourned for a fortnight to allow for a psychological report to be prepared for the court.
