Limerick — Use the appeal.limerick.ie Portal
Limerick City and County Council operates a dedicated appeals portal at appeal.limerick.ie. This is the channel that the Council itself directs appellants to. Where an appellant uses the portal within 28 days of FCN issue but the Council fails to process or determine, the appellant has both a procedural-fairness ground and the same uplift defence as other Irish councils.
Legal basis
Limerick City and County Council published appeals procedure (appeal.limerick.ie); Road Traffic Act 2010 s.35; Road Traffic Act 1994 s.36.
How to identify this in your case
Limerick FCN where the appeal was lodged via appeal.limerick.ie within 28 days but no determination has issued, or 50% uplift was applied during the appeal pendency.
