Justice Richard Humphreys rules High Court challenge as one day too late

A High Court judge has warned litigants to avoid the thrill of “a do-or-die scramble” to get the last seat out on the last helicopter out of Saigon when seeking to judicially review planning decisions.

Galway hurling manager and former Kilkenny captain, Henry Shefflin was among those originally objecting to the wind farm’s construction, although he was not a named party in the court challenge. The site is mainly owned by Coillte to the east of the 10-time All Ireland winner’s native Ballyhale in southeast Kilkenny.

He added: “Any dividing line seems arbitrary for the person who is just on the wrong side of it. Time limits become meaningless and unworkable unless they are applied consistently – otherwise we end up with the paradox of the heap.”
