Two leading anti-bin charge activists have case struck out by Judge in Drogheda.

Press Release

Two leading anti-bin charge activists have case struck out by Judge.

Drogheda Residents Against Bin Charges And Privatisation (DRABCAP) activists Bernard Gallagher & Harry Phelan had an alleged littering offence struck out at the District Court on Friday 10th last by Justice Flann Brennan. Drogheda Borough Council sought to adjourn the alleged offence case against both DRABCAP activists for a second time when both men objected to the Judge, they pointed out that they wished for the case to proceed as the litter warden was present. Following arguments put forward by both Mr. Gallagher & Mr. Phelan the Judge struck the case out against both DRABCAP activists, Harry Phelan stated in Court to the Judge that it was ‘ a miss-application of the Law by Tallan & Co.’(acting on behalf of the Borough Council), for filing a case when they knew that all their witnesses where not going to be present.

Following the case DRABCAP activist Harry Phelan stated ‘It’s obvious that the Borough Council and their Legal Representatives had a different agenda other than the proposed alleged offence under The Litter Pollution Act 1997 but their case fell flat on their face, I must praise the honourable Judge Flann Brennan for taking all aspects of the case into account.’
