Courting Papal Fallibility in Ireland

A Carlow man who was due to be charged with a number of motoring-related offences recently had his case adjourned in the local district court.

James Ogonshula, 19 Chapel St., Carlow, is charged with not having insurance; failure to produce insurance; not in posession of a driving licence and seperate charge to pruduce aforementioned licence; no tax; fraudulent use of a driving licence and/or insurance certificate. (Phew!!!)

Justin Cody, solicitor for Mr Ogonshula, sought the adjournment to seek clarification in relation to these matters, and Judge William Hartnett decided to adjourn until October.

"Will I make the enquiries or will the Garda Inspector," asked Cody.

"I think it is up to you - you are the defending solicitor," Judge Hartnett responded.

"I will write to the Inspector, so," replied Cody.

The judge remarked,"You can write to the Pope if you like."

"He might not know." replied Cody.

Whatever would BXVI make of his name being bandied about in a courtroom in Ireland and not a single child sex abuse case to be found??

No doubt the visitors from the Holy See to this blogspot will no doubt furnish us a response once BXVI has been informed by his minions.
