High Court grants order for a modular trial in a judicial review arising from the decision of the Health Service Executive to provide accommodation to a disabled and profoundly deaf person where nobody spoke the applicant's language (Irish Sign Language), on the grounds that the case was complex, many different reliefs were sought, and issues relating to damages should be considered separately from the other reliefs sought.
Judicial review - application by adult with serious disabilities - deaf - sent to live in residential facility where nobody spoke Irish Sign Language - grant of leave - application for modular trial - numerous grounds of relief - complex case - damages under various headings - recommendation of mediation.
