Jump To Comment: 5 4 3 2 1Today in Westport District Court was supposed to see the sentencing of Shell for the contempt of court charge that they were found guilty of on the 4th September. However Shell sought to have the case referred to the High court to have Judge Devins explain how she found them guilty of the contempt of court charge. Basically Shell are claiming that Judge Devins has erred in law in her decision (however they failed to specify how they think she has erred). Shell quoted from a law enacted in 1857 in order to seek to have the case referred to the High Court.
Judge Devins adjourned the case to October 8th, when she will decide whether the case will be sent to the High Court.
One guess as to why Shell sought this obscure course of action is that they are trying to delay the sentencing until after An Bord Pleanala decide on the planning application, in which the illegal information obtained on Rossport Commonage was used.
My confidence in the good judge is not strengthened by observing what her husband has been up to -- using scientific fraud (and his culpable ignorance) to suppress a public information report.
