A former garda who is before the courts on several counts of harassing, intimidating and demanding money from a woman will have to indicate whether he intends to plead guilty or fight the criminal charges next month.

Last Tuesday, Paul Moody appeared in the Circuit Criminal Court charged with five alleged offences against a woman at various dates in 2016 and 2017.
