Andrew Shannon appealed his conviction for handling stolen artwork at the Court of Appeal on 16 May 2019, with judgment reserved. The conviction concerned a Frederick Goodall painting found at his Dublin home.

His barrister argued that evidence gathered during a 2006 Garda investigation should not have been put before the jury. Lawyers for the Director of Public Prosecutions opposed the appeal, and the court reserved its judgment.
