Accused of dangerous driving in Laois

A man appeared in court accused of dangerous driving in Laois.

Padraig Delaney (26) of Cullohill, Portlaoise is accused of dangerous driving at Durrow Towns Park in Laois on January 31, 2026.

Solicitor Barry Fitzgerald appeared for the client and made it clear that the case was not legally aided and therefore hadn’t been impacted by an ongoing protest by solicitors in relation to legal aid fees.
