The family of Eve Cleary has settled a High Court action over the death of the 21-year-old who died hours after she was discharged from University Hospital Limerick and told to go home and rest.

As part of the settlement the HSE and the hospital in a statement to the High Court expressed “sincere condolences and deep regret” on the “untimely death” of Eve. The High Court heard that the settlement is without an admission of liability.
