§ MR. JAMES ROCHE (Kerry, E.)I beg to ask Mr. Attorney General for Ireland, whether, in view of the strong expression of opinion of Mr. Justice O'Brien in the case of David Leahy and another on the last day of the late Tralee Assizes, he proposes to take any action in the matter with a view to a prosecution for perjury?
§ THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. J. ATKINSON,) Londonderry, N.An action has been instituted by David Leahy, in the County Court in Kerry, and is about to come on for hearing, in which one of the questions at issue is whether Leahy was or was not guilty of the offence alleged to have been attributed to him by Mr. Justice O'Brien. Pending the result of this action, I must decline to state the intention of the Crown with regard to the prosecution of Leahy for this offence.
