A Detective Inspector claimed the victim went there to collect cash following a prior meeting at a Tesco store in Crumlin, Co Antrim the previous day.
A gunman emerged from the property and opened fire, hitting him several times. He died at the scene.
Originally from Dublin, Lawlor was widely reported to have been heavily involved in a feud between rival Drogheda-based factions.
He had been linked to the abduction and murder of 17-year-old Keane Mulready-Woods in January this year.
The gunman then fled down side streets to Kingston Court where a Volkswagen Scirocco, stolen from Co Roscommon in January and left there as a potential getaway car, was instead set on fire, the court heard.

New Castle County Police released the names of four people killed in three separate shootings earlier this month.
The four – Dakevis Reed, Allen Huff, Iris Longakit and Robert Wright – were killed during a five-day period that saw 16 people shot across the state, seven of them fatally.
So far this month, 25 people have been shot across the state. This helped push the number of people struck by gunfire in Delaware to 308 so far this year, according to a Delaware Online/The News Journal database.
