A High Court hearing is set to determine who will bear the legal costs following a civil action taken by Nikita Hand against MMA fighter Conor McGregor and James Lawrence. Hand alleged she was raped by McGregor in December 2018, and while a jury found McGregor liable and awarded her almost €250,000, they did not find Lawrence responsible. The costs typically follow the outcome, and Hand’s lawyers are expected to raise concerns over social media posts made by the defendants since the verdict. McGregor plans to appeal.
