Corporate bullying in the Courtroom.
Walter Evans was in Court again with Coillte in January 2008.
Strangely, the Court sitting in January 2008 was held " in camera" (private).
As Walter's barrister was reading out his affidavit, Coillte's barrister observed, and commented on, with excitement,that there was a reporter in Court.
Immediately, the Judge closed down Walter Evans's barrister from continuing reading out Walter Evans's affidavit!. The Judge was most abusive to Walter Evans's barrister.
However, at one point during this hearing, lawyers dealing with a different case entered the Courtroom in error, while Walter Evans's case was in progress. While these other lawyers were in the Courtroom, the Judge was most polite to Walter Evans,s barrister.
It would appear, that Coillte wishes to have this case with Walter Evans carried out in private , for some reason.
Also, there is a distiinct air of corporate bullying by Coillte against Walter Evans surrounding this case and related issues at Nowen Hill, Dunmanway, Co. Cork.
Walter Evans continues his struggle for justice.
