Dolores was lead singer with The Cranberries. 

He said: “My client is presently receiving ongoing medical treatment and presently she’s receiving residential treatment, hence her absence from court.”

Judge Patrick Durkin agreed to adjorn the case on the grounds of illness.

The former Cranberries singer is accused of four alleged offences including assault from an incident at Shannon airport in November of last year.
