Ryanair appeal fails to fly
Congratulations to Maurice O'Carroll, advocate and his good lady wife for their recent court victory over Ryanair. Mr. O'Carroll acted as a party litigant (kind of) in suing the aforementioned airline for damages occasioned by a delayed/cancelled flight. You can read the judgement here: O'Carroll v. Ryanair.
Two points occur to me. One, how useful to be able to sue for delays at airports and two, how interesting that even advocates take budget flights. The credit crunch is affecting even counsel it seems!
Finally, a big welcome to the website of Maurice O'Carroll which has now been added to our Advocates page in the links section.

It was actually Maurice and Derek's parents who were the successful party litigant pursuers. Congratulations to them anyway!
You should check your facts before going to print. I regret that my sons' names have been used like this. I hope you have apologised to Maurice.
Maurice (Senior)
Indeed I should. The apology and correction were published the very next day under the heading Ooops!.
