E14 of The Fifth Court presented by Peter Leonard BL and Mark Tottenham BL

On this episode the dynamic duo discuss three cases from the Decisis.ie casebook;

• The first is a medical negligence case involving the use of epilepsy medicine during a pregnancy and this case was about the admission of new evidence.
• The 2nd case is about the liability of either tenant and a management of an apartment complex, where the tenant, who claimed he slipped in a common area, is a member of the management company .
• The final case is about alleged trespass by a drone, what constitutes a trespass when a drone is above land.

All fascinating cases, essential updates for practitioners.

The Big Interview is with Gemma McLoughlin-Burke who spent over 3 years as a Judicial Assistant to Mr. Justice Robert Haughton. The JA, as they're known, replaced the tipstaffs that accompanied judges around the courts. The role has changed hugely and, Gemma says, is a great grounding in the legal process for lawyers.
