The retrial of the man charged with rugby player Shane Geoghegan's murder will begin next January.
A jury failed to reach a verdict last week following a four-week trial at the Central Criminal Court so another jury will have to retry the case.
Barry Doyle (24), with addresses at Portland Row, Dublin; and Hyde Road, Limerick, pleaded not guilty to murdering the 28-year-old Garryowen player.
Mr Geoghegan was shot dead on November 9th, 2008 in a suspected case of mistaken identity near his home in Clonmore, Kilteragh, Dooradoyle, Limerick.
Mr Doyle was not in court this morning when Mr Justice Paul Carney set January 16th, 2012 as the date for his retrial.
