Maximum payment in cases involving death of children limited over quarter of a century ago
Mr Richardson, who appeared with Deborah Crowley of Ferry Solicitors, Rialto, Dublin, for the boy’s mother, told the court that Kacper regularly accompanied his mum and skydiving instructor father, Krzysztof, to the Irish Parachute Club at Clonbullogue Airfield, Co Offaly. He had a passion for all things aeronautical and loved watching the flights and parachutists.
The court heard the Cessna impacted heavily nose down into boggy ground causing the deaths of Kacper and the pilot. An inquest had been told their deaths would have been instantaneous. Ms Crowley said in an affidavit that the aircraft owner, following negotiations, had offered to pay within 21 days the prescribed €35,000 compensation as well as €13,000 for special costs associated with Kacper’s death.
