Judge John O’Connor heard in the Circuit Civil court on Thursday that Eileen Carroll, now aged 82, had to wait in the car park outside the Credit Union offices at Artane Roundabout on Malahide Road, Dublin, in August 2020. The court was shown CCTV footage of Ms Carroll struggling to control her umbrella and falling during a storm while she waited to be allowed to enter the offices and being helped to her feet by other members in the queue.
Ms Carroll, of Temple Manor Way, Walkinstown, Dublin 12, told Judge O’Connor she had felt something strike her foot as she waited alongside plastic water-filled pedestrian barriers controlling safe distancing along the outside wall of the Credit Union car park.
