Longford District Court adjourns police property application over €35k cash to December

Longford District Court adjourned a Police Property Act application over two cash sums, €35,000 and €1,710, seized on 26 April 2023. The application was made by Longford Superintendent Seamus Boyle and contested by Christina Doyle, Linda Doyle and Thomas Doyle, with Christina Doyle claiming ownership of the property. At an earlier sitting, solicitor Brid Mimnagh said only one of the three original appellants still sought the return of the cash, and the solicitor asked that the matter be held pending a Circuit Court case. The latest development is that Judge Bernadette Owens adjourned the matter to 3 December to allow the Circuit Court case to conclude.
