The 17-year-old accused is charged with assault causing serious harm to Ms Faulkner, 29, at the R494 Birdhill, Co Tipperary, on 21 March last.<\/p>\n
The mother of one died in hospital three weeks after the alleged attack.<\/p>\n

The court was told that the Director of Public Prosecutions has given verbal directions and written directions are awaited in the case.<\/p>\n
The matter was put back until next Wednesday, 15 July, when new charges will be preferred against the defendant.<\/p>\n
Judge Keane ordered that the teenager be produced in court on Wednesday for the purposes of those charges.<\/p>\n
A co-accused 40-year-old woman also appeared before the court via video-link from a remand prison.<\/p>\n
The woman is charged with violent disorder, endangerment and burglary.<\/p>\n
She was also told by Judge Keane that the DPP has given verbal directions and written directions are awaited.<\/p>\n
