A Dublin man's 2023 conviction for spitting on a neighbor was overturned after he paid €500 in remorse, despite the victim's distress.
A Dublin man, Anthony Finnegan, 46, had his 2023 assault conviction overturned after pleading guilty to spitting on his neighbor from a second-floor window.
The victim said the act caused severe emotional distress and asthma attacks.
Finnegan, a father of three with no prior record, argued the conviction would harm his life, especially given an existing restraining order.
The appeals court acknowledged the act was demeaning but accepted a €500 payment from Finnegan as remorse, which the victim accepted.
The conviction was quashed, removing it from his record, while emphasizing the need for both parties to remain separated.
