Here are the stories making headlines this Sunday.
The Sunday Times leads with Fine Gael entering "damage litigation mode" and hoping for a miracle in the final week of the presidential election campaign to elect Heather Humphreys as president.
The front page of the Sunday Independent also focuses on the race to the Áras, as Humphreys issued a stinging attack on rival Catherine Connolly saying that, in contrast to her opponent, she "never tried to make money out of people's misfortune".
Speaking to the paper, Humphreys pointed to Connolly's past work as a barrister representing banks in repossessing people's homes and said she wants voters to know that one difference between her and Connolly is that she always tried "to keep people in their homes".
Catherine Connolly's former assistant - convicted gun criminal Ursula Ní Shionnáin - has refused to say sorry for taking part in the attempted robbery that resulted in her being sentenced to six years in prison, according to The Irish Mail on Sunday.
A woman, alleged on TikTok to be the daredevil cat burglar who climbed across a four-storey balcony balustrade to steal ham and cheese from a neighbour's fridge, has made a formal complaint to gardaí after her own front door was kicked in and vandalised, the Sunday World reports.
The Irish Sunday Mirror leads with a teenager being remanded in custody on Saturday charged with the murder of Ukrainian teenager Vadym Davydenko at a Tusla care unit in Donaghmede.
The ESRI chair has warned of added costs and delays after a legal challenge to Dublin's coastal rail line, the Business Post reports.
