Cork solicitors oppose judge's move to close Youghal courthouse due to 'unbearable' temperatures
Solicitors contend relocating from Youghal to Dungarvan would be highly expensive and present travel difficulties for many attendees, including gardaí, but particularly the most vulnerable and underprivileged.
Solicitors serving Youghal District Court have formally expressed their strong opposition to plans to close the town’s courthouse later this year which, they claim, is motivated by a judge’s dissatisfaction with the courtroom temperature.
The group of seven practitioners submitted their concerns, upon invitation, to the head of District and Circuit Court Operations.
