Olivier Le Bozec, 41, appeared in court after being charged with dangerous driving causing the death of Jeremiah O’Connor near Ballyvaughan in July last year
A French tourist has appeared in court charged with dangerous driving causing the death of a 71-year-old motorcyclist outside the Burren village of Ballyvaughan in north Clare last July.
A Book of Evidence was served in the case on Wednesday and Judge Adrian Harris sent Mr Le Bozec forward for trial to the next sittings of Ennis Circuit Court. Mr Le Bozec - who is in full-time employment in France - is free to return home to France pending the case coming before Ennis Circuit Court. Mr Casey applied that the legal aid certificate be extended to allow two barristers also represent Mr Le Bozec in the circuit court and for the Book of Evidence to be translated into French.
