    Sounds like you should be visiting a court- it's the best way to figure out all the rolls of the people working there. Take an afternoon to go don to the local court...you may find it very interesting!

    OP, there are no reported judgments of the DC or CC, and no newspaper report will contain that information. The assignment is clearly designed to require you to visit a court in person, and I'm sure that was communicated to you, so just use courts.ie to find the next sitting which is near to you and head along.

    As stated by previous poster you wont get that info from any court report, so either go to a sittin of local district court as you will see multiple cases and actually figure out the various roles as the cases go by or else speak to a local friendly garda. Best option, do both! Just out of curiousity, why exactly do you have to write a court report??.
    Ps if going to a court sitting, get a scheduled court date (the new charges are mentioned and dates given for hearing etc, usually cases are not heard on the first day up) also, juries only exist in circuit court. Court can be a good day out if you're in to that sort of thing!

    Talking to a mate on the phone earlier. Apparently we'v to write a report on a recent case and then explan what everyones job is in general and not in that particular case..

    Feckin FETAC those assignment pages are never clear with the instructions..

    Anyway. I suppose that makes the assignment easier for me. Just write about a case and then explain the relevant jobs lol..
