Sean Quinn allegedly "trespassing" on lands owned by his former companies, court hears

At the High Court on Friday, Mannok Cement Limited and Mannok Build Ltd sought an injunction to prevent Sean Quinn from trespassing on lands in Co Cavan, including Swanlinbar Quarry. The companies allege that Mr Quinn has repeatedly entered their properties without entitlement since late 2019, most recently on 8 May while driving a vehicle. They contend his presence poses health and safety risks given active industrial operations on site. Mr Quinn did not attend the hearing due to short notice but submitted a letter to the court. He offered an undertaking not to visit Mannok-owned properties provided he retained access to a roadway linking Swanlinbar Quarry to a cement factory, which he states he constructed two decades ago and requires for business interests and windfarm development discussions. Mr Justice Alexander Owens adjourned the application to the following week. The companies dispute Mr Quinn has any legitimate claim to road access or legal interest in the lands.
