Not sure how many saw this, so here it is Taoiseach and the Minister for Defence, Michael Smith, to appear as witnesses at Shannon District court on 12 June in Good Friday trespass at Shannon airport case.

If you feel the urge to tell people what RTE are talking about then send out an email or something. Why do you have to treat this site like your own little noticeboard. You were able to spread the word before Indymedia came along so do what you would have done then, and post here when you have a news article or photos to contribute.
'IMCer' an IMC person or just some twat who likes to abuse people?
I see, they are just trying to discourage people from using the newswire eh.
IMCer I posted this because it is news, whether it is RTE news or not. I had not realised that there was a necessity for all news posted here not to have previously been mentioned on any other media or fora.
I posted because many people have not heard and would be interested in the news that Bertie and Minister of Defence had been subpoenaed.
I posted it here because it was not mentioned here before and is news to do with the use of Shannon.
well i hadnae heard about it, so thanks joe, and IMCer, get a grip please.
for the editors to complain about this. a bit more detail would have helped. should all postings to indy just consist of 2 liners?
But they're not posting as a member of the IMC collective, so their opinion should be taken as the opinion of another site user: one that tells people to fuck off.
According to reports on newstalk 106, the gardai in Clare prevented the subpoenae from being served earlier today.
I was just wondering what part of their job description states their duty to pervert the course of justice?
It was reported as "an activist was thwarted by gardai as he tried to serve bertie ahern notice to appear in court" (or something to that effect)
and was this activist ? and who decided that the person was an activist ?
i though only lawyers(or sub lawyers) could serve supboenas ?
not that one couldn't be lawyer and an activist
This sounds downright illegal. Perhaps the paper server would complain to the Garda Complaints Board? It may also be contempt of court. What do our legal eagles think?
John Devane is his name,and he is representing jenny and martin,
thank you
John Devane has filed a complaint to the Garda Complaints Board "after gardaí attempted yesterday to prevent him serving aummons on the Taoiseach, Mr Ahern" (IT).
Re an above comment. Anyone can serve papers.you dont have to be a lawyer,just have the orginals and the copies.serve the copies,note time and date,and location.Be able to run like Hell helps as well!
