Gemma O’Doherty’s alleged contempt case was adjourned at the High Court on 23 February 2024, after she failed to appear to answer an application that could lead to imprisonment.

Mr Justice Mark Sanfey granted lawyers for Edel Campbell another week to serve Gardaí with the attachment and committal papers, and allowed for an earlier appearance if appropriate.

The application concerns allegations that O’Doherty breached an order barring harassment of Campbell and restricting publication of images of her late son and family; O’Doherty denies wrongdoing.
