The High Court has adjourned an application by the Revenue Commissioners to wind up Limerick FC, a League of Ireland Premier Division club. The Collector General has petitioned to have Munster Football Club Ltd, trading as Limerick FC, wound up following an alleged failure to pay a tax demand issued in mid-September for outstanding PAYE and PRSI contributions. The company's registered address is listed at Kirby O'Sullivan Sports, Social & Business Park, Bruff, County Limerick. During a brief mention before Mr Justice David Keane, counsel for the Collector General informed the court that both parties had agreed to adjourn the petition for three weeks. The court will revisit the matter once Limerick FC's senior men's team completes their remaining fixtures, including a promotion and relegation play-off against Donegal side Finn Harps.

Michael Moloney, aged 40, was sentenced by the Central Criminal Court to ten years' imprisonment for the rape of his stepdaughter, with the final two and a half years suspended. He also received a concurrent seven‑year term for eight counts of sexual abuse, with the final three and a half years suspended. Moloney pleaded guilty to the sexual abuse charges, which covered incidents from 2009 to 2015, and admitted to more than 15 abuses between the victim's ages of 10 and 17. He had previously pleaded not guilty to the rape charge, but later accepted responsibility. The victim, who had waived anonymity, described the abuse as persistent and damaging to her trust in family and her sense of safety. Moloney's sentencing was delivered by Ms Justice Deirdre Murphy, who noted his remorse and good employment history. The case concluded with Moloney's conviction and imprisonment, with no further legal actions reported in the article.

Patrick Walsh, a 33‑year‑old former Canada Life tied agent from Bruff, was sentenced to two and a half years in prison after pleading guilty to 75 fraud and theft charges. Between February 2010 and November 2011, he created 38 fictitious insurance policies, using names similar to his own, his estranged wife's, or genuine clients, and received commissions and performance bonuses totalling about €265,000. He also stole €90,000 from Canada Life, which paid him for the fake policies, and paid €50,000 in bonuses. The fraudulent policies were worth €75,000, but Walsh profited €215,000, leaving Canada Life with a €230,000 loss. He admitted that the scheme began to finance a house he was building with his former partner, but the scheme spiralled out of control. The court described the conduct as a "long pattern of criminal behaviour" and imposed custodial custody, noting that no genuine policy holders were left out of pocket.

Patrick Walsh, a 33‑year‑old former Canada Life tied agent, admitted to creating 38 fictitious insurance policies between February 2010 and November 2011, generating €215,000 in fraudulent commissions and €50,000 in performance bonuses. He also stole 37 times from Canada Life, receiving commissions on the fake policies. The company suffered a loss of €230,000. Walsh claimed he fabricated policies to fund a house he was building with his estranged wife, but the scheme spiralled as he needed more money to keep the policies from lapsing. He paid €90,000 to produce the policies, which were worth €75,000 when discovered. Walsh also set up direct debits from genuine policyholders' accounts, refunding them from his own account when questioned. He pleaded guilty to 75 fraud and theft charges and is to be sentenced at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court on Monday.
