And finally… short shrift

An angry judge postponed sentencing of a man found guilty of threatening behaviour after he turned up to court wearing shorts.

Judge Olann Kelleher, delaying the case until Friday, said: “You cannot come to court in shorts.”

Cain O’Mahony, 26, turned up to Cork District Court yesterday in a black polo shirt and black shorts, the Irish Examiner reports.

He was previously found guilty of engaging in threatening behaviour on 2 February.

Mr O’Mahony is expected to reappear tomorrow in long trousers.
