This report is a localnews.ie summary based on public court reporting and records; sources are listed below.

Brian O’Donnell was granted a further stay by a three-judge appeal court on 13 March 2015, pending his appeal against a Gorse Hill injunction. The stay allows O’Donnell and his wife Mary Patricia to remain at the disputed Killiney property until their appeal is heard at 2pm on 19 March 2015. O’Donnell argued in court that he had 22 grounds of appeal against the earlier decision. Bank of Ireland opposed their continued presence, saying the couple’s departure would not prejudice the appeal.

The injunction followed a decision allowing the bank to seek possession of the property, while the couple’s appeal remains unresolved. The court temporarily extended the stay on the injunction after hearing arguments from both sides.
