The judgement was given yesterday.
The four men accused of breaking Covid restrictions when organising the Golfgate dinner had their charges dismissed yesterday.
The judge in the Golfgate trial said those at the Oireachtas Golf Society dinner in August 2020 were fully compliant with lockdown laws.
Independent TD Noel Grealish and former Fianna Fáil Senator Donie Cassidy face no penalty.
While the owners of the Clifden Station House Hotel also face no penalty.
All four had faced a single charge that they organised an event that contravened the Health Act 1947, as amended. to prevent, limit, minimise or slow the spread of Covid-19.
81 people attended the dinner when the limit on such gatherings was 50 during level three lockdown.
Independent.ie report that Judge Fahy found there was no evidence that Mr Grealish was one of the organisers.
And she found that because the event was divided into two smaller rooms, the event complied with the rules in place at the time.
She said “a lot of very good people lost very good jobs” in the fallout from the event.
There's been some disagreement with the decision.
Former government minister Shane Ross says the treatment of those who violate Covid guidelines is inconsistent.
"In other venues and other locations, we've seen other people paying a very heavy penalty for what appeared to be similar breaches of Covid guidelines," said Ross.
He also added that some people lost jobs for attending the Golfgate dinner, such as Dara Calleary.
