REQUEST FOR A FURTHER ADJOURNMENT GRANTED
Judge Geoffrey Browne granted a request for a further adjournment of William Finnerty's case at the May 6th 2015 Sitting of Loughrea District Court (last Wednesday), and the case is at present re-scheduled to be heard in July (2015).
The text of a letter handed to the Clerk of Loughrea District Court last Wednesday morning -- by Gerald Finnerty (William Finnerty's brother), and Marjorie Dolan (William Finnerty's half-sister) -- which is believed to be self-explanatory, is provided in the section below.

Dear Presiding Judge and all Officers of the Loughrea District Court,
RE: Case Number 2014/233698 to be heard at the May 6th 2015 Sitting at Loughrea District Courthouse
I feel I cannot sensibly attend today's Court Hearing because, since around 2002, I have been suffering very badly with Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD), evidence of which can be found in the attached copy of the "To Whom It May Concern" letter dated October 28th 2005 from Dr Michael McCavert GP; and, that attendance at today's Court Hearing would (I believe) undoubtedly exacerbate my C-PTSD condition in major ways. This belief of mine is, I understand, shared by Dr Deirdre Mulryan (Medical Doctor, Senior Registrar, and Psychotherapist at Ballinasloe Day Hospital), with whom I have had a number of lengthy telephone conversations during recent months. I also understand that Dr Deirdre Mulryan has written to An Garda Siochana (Republic of Ireland Police) in Loughrea at least once earlier this year regarding my particular situation: along very similar lines to what I relate here.
Since last December (2014), there has been a very significant increase in the symptoms of the C-PTSD psychological injuries I suffer from, and in particular those relating to the frequency and intensity of the panic-attacks I am at present experiencing: which, as you may already know, can be extremely freighting in ways. Far more worrying for me though is the fact that combinations of the set of C-PTSD symptoms I suffer from, can, given the right set of circumstances, very suddenly appear in an entirely involuntary way for me: and, for people not familiar with the symptoms of C-PTSD, the results can very easily be grossly misunderstood, and also grossly misrepresented very easily, in ways which have no meaningful relationship with reality. This fact has, I believe, the potential to create extremely serious legal consequences for me: if I were to attempt to appear in a Court of Law at the present time.
My understanding is that Brendan Glynn (Solicitor) will be in Court
today to represent myself, my brother (Gerald Finnerty), and my
half-sister (Marjorie Dolan), both of whom also intend to be present;
and, that Mr Glynn plans to ask the Court for a further adjournment of
my case so that we have the necessary time needed to prepare my legal
defence. Further information relating to this is contained in a
registered letter I sent to the Clerk of Loughrea District (Ms Josie
Mulherin) last Saturday (May 2nd 2015), and, a scanned copy of the full
letter in question, together with scanned copies of the associated Post
Office registered-letter receipts, all in PDF Format, can be viewed at
the following www location:

It would be very much appreciated if the Presiding Judge at today's Sitting of the Loughrea District Court would please grant Mr Brendan Glynn (acting on my behalf) a further adjournment of my case, because, among a number of other things, I believe it might be a very important step in helping me to recover from the C-PTSD psychological injuries I am at present suffering from.
Yours sincerely,
William Finnerty.
