Details

The leading text and reference book on coroners practice and procedure in Ireland.

This is the second edition of the textbook by Dr Brian Farrell, former Dublin City and District Coroner.

The first edition since its publication in 2000 has constituted the leading text and reference book on Coroners practice and procedure in Ireland. Coroners law, practice and procedure has evolved considerably during the past 25 years inspired by a number of executive reviews and decisions of the superior courts relating to inquests. Additional impetus emanating from the European Convention on Human Rights Act 2003, decisions of the European Court of Human Rights, the Coroners Acts 1962 to 2024 and associated legislation has been pivotal.

The new edition provides additional material on the historical background to the coronial system in Ireland, and on the Office of Coroner in the light of new administrative arrangements pursuant to the Coroners Acts 1962 to 2024.
