A LEGAL bill from the solicitors representing Fr Kevin Reynolds in his libel case against RTE has been cut by €195,000.
The reduction in the bill of Fr Reynolds’s solicitor Robert Dore and his firm, Dore and Company, was imposed by High Court Taxing Master Declan O’Neill yesterday.
RTE will pay the costs as part of the settlement of the action brought against it by Fr Reynolds over defamation in the ‘Prime Time Investigates: Mission to Prey’ programme.
The settlement involved a public apology to the priest and a €1m payment.
