Opening the case, his counsel, Elizabeth O’Connell SC, said Mr O’Donovan crawled to the side of the road and was brought to hospital by ambulance. She said pain and a limp are a constant feature for Mr O’Donovan and the injury has had a profound effect on him. Ms O'Sullivan put it to him that he was asking for €40 a month for somebody to come and cut his grass for lif . Ms O'Sullivan said he could get a robotic lawnmower and sit on a deck chair and watch and he didn’t need to pay a person to come and cut the lawn. After talks outside court, Ms Justice Leonie Reynolds was told late on Wednesday afternoon that the case had been settled.
