Mr Leahy's application to have his legal costs reimbursed.
The coroner ordered Ms Leahy's husband Alan Leahy to stand trial.
Mr Leahy's lawyers applied to the Supreme Court to have the coroner's decision reviewed, arguing Mr Barnes exercised his powers improperly and erred in law.
Today Justice Jim Henry upheld that application, ruling the coroner had erred in his decision to commit Mr Leahy.
The parties will return to court at a later date to discuss Mr Leahy's application to have his legal costs reimbursed.
