A 49-year-old woman who was charged with murdering a man in a Dublin apartment two years ago has admitted to manslaughter.

However, Ms Phelan, of Aylward Green, Finglas, Dublin 11, pleaded guilty to manslaughter when she was arraigned before the Central Criminal Court on Tuesday morning.

Mr Justice Paul McDermott listed the case for sentencing on February 4th next.
