The County Kerry Coursing Club has been refused a High Court injunction restraining the owner of the former Tralee Racecourse from locking it out of grounds that have been used for hare coursing for more than a century.
Dismissing the Club’s application on Thursday, Mr Justice Garrett Simons said he would deliver a detailed judgment next week.
