The Courts Service’s own adjournment, cancellation and change-of-date notices for this courthouse, checked 15 Oct 2026. Never a case: ring the office to confirm a date.

What sits here

Sittings, as the Courts Service lists them: Criminal and civil: second Wednesday in each month at 10:30 am.

Before you go

  1. Check the date, the time and the courthouse on your paper; if anything is unclear, ring the office. A summons is applied for by the Garda, issued by the District Court office and served by registered post or in person.
  2. Arrive early: the list is called over at the start of the sitting, and a case called in your absence can end in a bench warrant.
  3. If you may qualify for legal aid, ask the judge for it before anything else, with a statement of means.
  4. There is no dress code; clean and plain is what most people wear. Address the judge as "Judge". Stand when your case is called and when you speak.
  5. Build the court day checklist and keep the dates in your case file.
