Three people sexually abused by paedophile priest Brendan Smyth want the Supreme Court to permit them to sue a Catholic bishop.
The case is over the Church's alleged failure to act to prevent Smyth abusing children. Michael Counihan, SC for the three, argued it is of significant public importance if the Church had kept "under wraps" facts that would have identified Smyth as being an abuser.
