High Court judge says it is arguable that collusive behaviour conclusions 'over-stepped the mark'.
A third challenge relates to findings in the case of four men wrongly accused of murdering a British soldier in Londonderry.for the killing of Lt Stephen Kirby in the city in 1979.Three of the so-called Derry Four - Gerry McGowan, Michael Toner, Gerard Kelly - pictured reading the Police Ombudsman report
The retired officers claim Mrs Anderson is legally forbidden from making findings which, without proper due process, effectively branded the RUC guilty of colluding in terrorist murders. In court, counsel for the RUC association claimed that the ombudsman misunderstood her permitted role.Ruling on the initial stage of the case on Tuesday, Mr Justice Scoffield acknowledged that the precise nature of the ombudsman's role in legacy investigations and the extent of her powers "remains a running sore" between her office and former police officers.
He said each of the cases raised some ground or grounds that should be considered in substance by the court.
