E46 The Fifth Court - Ireland's legal podcast
Peter Leonard BL and Mark Tottenham BL talk to E46 The Fifth Court, Michael O'Flaherty, Director of the EU Fundamental Rights Agency - about implementing human rights 'on the ground'.
Michael studied in law in UCD, became a solicitor, then trained as a priest, left the priesthood and became a human rights lawyer that led to his current post as well as being an Adjunct Professor of Human Rights Law at Maynooth University.
His current favourite book is the The Radetzky March by Joseph Roth
From the Decisis.ie casebook our interlocutors look at two recent decisions;
One case involving a dispute over a bank loan from Ulster Bank where one of the parties had been bankrupted in England, which was a seminal fact.
A second case involves a case where a member of An Garda Síochána was bitten by a Belgian Shepherd dog, in the line of duty.
