Nathan Killeen opened an appeal against his murder conviction at a hearing on 3 April 2017, according to the report. The appeal concerned the 2009 shooting of Roy Collins at Coin Castle Amusements in Roxboro, Limerick.

Killeen and Wayne Dundon had been convicted by the non-jury Special Criminal Court and given mandatory life sentences. The defence argued that the trial judgment failed to address alleged inconsistencies and possible collusion among prosecution witnesses.
