High Court. The HSE lost in the High Court, so it went to the Supreme Court. In the meantime, the District Court gave an order for costs, but MacMenamin J. said that there was nothing special about the case that made this decision necessary. The HSE took the order to pay costs to the Circuit Court. On April 29, 2014, the Supreme Court appeal was dropped.
