Case in opposition to Conor McGregor
Justice Alexander Owens will oversee a Excessive Courtroom civil in opposition to Irish combined martial arts fighter Conor McGregor and one other man for the alleged sexual assault of a lady.
Earlier this week a jury was sworn in to find out if the allegation from Nikita Ni Laimhin, a hair colorist, in opposition to the lads has advantage.
The girl claims that the UFC star and one other man sexually assaulted her on December 9, 2018.
The courtroom heard that whether it is proved, then it’s a civil fallacious and the plaintiff is entitled to compensation of damages.
The jury was informed that they’re judges of reality as to what occurred and must draw a conclusion, and will probably be based mostly on their resolution.
Justice Owens warned the jury to not turn out to be their very own “personal detective” and perform their very own impartial analysis into the case.
“You make your resolution and hearken to the proof and make your resolution based mostly on the proof,” Justice Owens mentioned.
“Something that you just hear or see about this trial, or something concerning the circumstances of the trial that’s not acquired in courtroom, can’t be thought of by you.”
The case is being heard in Dublin, Eire.
