Extradition proceedings against Belfast man Liam Adams who is wanted in Northern Ireland have been adjourned until Monday next.
In the High Court this morning, Mr Justice John Edwards said that he would deliver his ruling next Monday.
Liam Adams is being sought for questioning by the Police Service of Northern Ireland in relation to 18 alleged offences against his daughter, Áine Tyrell, who has waived her right to anonymity.
The 56-year-old has claimed he will not get a fair trial because his brother, the Sinn Féin leader, publicly declared his guilt.
The sex abuse claims became public in December 2009 when Ms Tyrell was featured in a television documentary.
Liam Adams is accused of rape, indecent assault and gross indecency at various addresses in Belfast between March 1977 and March 1983, when his daughter was aged between four and 10.
In an affidavit to the court, Adams said he has been prejudiced by the delay in bringing charges and widely condemned as a guilty man by the media and persons of repute and in positions of authority.
The High Court was told a complaint was first lodged by Ms Tyrell, 38, and her mother Sarah Adams to police in Belfast on 28 January,1987.
She claimed her father "would get in to her bed and always do the same things to her".
Liam Adams, whose last address was Bernagh Avenue in Belfast, denied the allegations when arrested in February 2007.
A European Arrest Warrant was issued almost two years later and he handed himself in to gardaí in Dublin.
