UK Barrister Launches Article 50 Case In Dublin

A British Barrister has lodged a court case against Ireland over BREXIT.

Jolyon Maugham is taking the case to establish if Britain can stop the process of leaving the EU - once it triggers article 50. The Irish Times reports legal documents were lodged with the High Court yesterday and name Ireland and the Attorney General as defendants. Mr. Maugham ran a crowdfunding campaign before Christmas which raised several thousand euro to allow the case proceed.
