Former solicitor Michael Lynn, who is accused of multi-million euro thefts, is to stand trial in January 2020.
Mr Lynn, 49, with an address in St Alban's Park, Sandymount, Dublin is facing 21 charges relating to the alleged theft of almost €30 million from seven financial institutions.
In one of the sample charges before Dublin Circuit Criminal Court, Mr Lynn is accused of stealing €4.1m from Irish Nationwide on 4 April 2007.
In another sample count, he is charged with stealing €3.6m from Ulster Bank on 20 October 2006.
Last March, Mr Lynn was extradited to Ireland from Brazil, where he had been living for several years.
His lawyer Karl Monahan told Judge Martin Nolan that Mr Lynn had been in custody for some time.
He said he was seeking the earliest possible trial date.
Prosecuting barrister Cathleen Noctor told the court that the trial is expected to last six to eight weeks.
A trial date of 13 January 2020 was set with and a pre-trial date of 28 November 2019.
Mr Lynn was remanded in continuing custody.
