A Galway woman accused of murder was granted continuing bail in Dublin District Court this week.
Maura Thornton, aged 30, with an address at Upper Salthill, Galway, was charged with the murder of Kevin Joyce, 59, a Co Mayo native, at an apartment in Salthill on July 31, 2011.
The District Court was told that Ms Thornton is currently receiving medical treatment in Dublin and requested that she be allowed to continue this treatment. This request was granted and she is due to appear again in the Dublin District Court on September 27.
