An inquest into the fatal shooting of an armed robber by gardaí in west Dublin 14 years ago could face further delays if there is any dispute over claims of legal privilege on documents in the case.
The senior coroner for Dublin, Myra Cullinane, acknowledged the potential for a legal dispute over privileged documents to delay the inquest into the death of Garett Molloy who was fatally wounded by gardaí during an attempted armed robbery of a cash-in-transit vehicle outside a Centra store on Foxborough Road, Lucan on May 15, 2009.
At a brief sitting of Dublin District Coroner’s Court on Monday, Dr Cullinane was informed that a final list of documents over which various parties had claimed privilege had been circulated but it still had to be assessed.
