Former solicitor Michael Lynn and his wife Brid arrive at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court on Friday.
Former solicitor Michael Lynn has defended his decision not to “reveal his hand” about alleged secret deals he had with senior bankers, his multimillion-euro theft trial has heard.
Mr Lynn told the court he gave what he described as a €5,000 to €10,000 “spending money/bonus” to senior bankers, including Michael Fingleton, whom he brought on trips abroad.
