Solicitors Boycott Disrupts Courts
Description
A legal aid boycott is causing chaos in Irish courts as barristers show up without solicitor instructions, forcing adjournments in key criminal cases. Solicitors are withdrawing from legal aid work over fee disputes, leaving accused individuals stuck in limbo while judges demand advance notice to manage disruptions. Some cases proceed when solicitors are present, but the fallout is widespread — victims, juries, and defendants are all affected as the system strains to keep moving.
