The action was brought after some 280,000 files covering a 17-year period were seized by the ODCE as part of its investigation into the FAI.
The High Court will receive a report next week with recommendations about what documents seized by the Office of the Director of Corporate Enforcement (ODCE) from the Football Association of Ireland (FAI) should be deemed covered by legal privilege.
Many of the documents relate to the FAI’s former CEO, John Delaney. The report, compiled by two independent barristers, Niall Nolan and Patrick Mair, will be delivered to Ms Justice Leonie Reynolds next Monday.
