A Belfast appeal court lifts an injunction that had barred the Orange Order from marching down Garvaghy Road later today. The court allows the Orange Order’s appeal after finding legal error in the decision that imposed the ban.
RTE and the Evening Standard report that Lady Chief Justice Dame Siobhan Keegan says the High Court judge “unfortunately erred in law” when granting the injunction. The appeal court therefore overturns that ruling and permits the march to proceed.
The Irish Mirror adds that the appeal hearing is time-limited, with proceedings described as beginning shortly after 00.20am on Sunday and involving Garvaghy Road residents before the relevant judge. Across outlets, the central focus is the court’s legal reasoning for setting aside the earlier ban, rather than changes to the underlying dispute itself.
