Ian Bailey Will Appear Before The High Court Again In May

Its after lawyers for the minister for Justice asked for more time to consider a 'voluminous' file they received from his solictor. 

The Irish Examiner reports that Ian Bailey also swore an affidavit containing certain factual matters, including facts relating to his health. 

Bailey was found guilty in a French court, in his absence, for the murder of Sophie Tuscan Du Plantier whose body was found at her holiday home in Schull in December 1996. 

He denies having any involvement in the murder.

This is the third time French authorities have attempted to extradite him from Ireland.
