Evidence in trial of former Anglo chairman Sean FitzPatrick now not expected to begin until Wednesday
Summary
Evidence in the trial of former Anglo Irish Bank chairman Sean FitzPatrick, accused of failing to disclose the true value of multi‑million euro loans, will not begin until next Wednesday. A jury of six men and six women was formed at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court on Tuesday. Judge Mary Ellen Ring told the jurors to return to court next Monday when the trial was due to begin in evidence, but lawyers for both sides said that legal discussions in the absence of the jury are likely to continue into Tuesday. Judge Ring asked the Courts Service to contact the jurors and inform them they should return now on Wednesday. The unnamed accused pleaded not guilty.
