Tis All Lies, Your Worship...: Tales from the District Court

Tales from the District Court, which is part history and part memoir, traces the development of the Irish District Court in the life of the community and the country. Mary Kotsonouris, the historian of the Dáil Courts (Irish Parliament Courts) and district judge for nine years, gathered information from interviews, the Irish National Archives, and court reports in contemporary newspapers. What emerges is a fascinating and often amusing picture of what actually goes on in the district courts throughout Ireland.
