Wanted former Wexford hurler now in Northern Ireland, High Court told

Summary

Paul Codd, a former All-Ireland winning Wexford hurler, has a warrant for his arrest due to his refusal to cooperate with his bankruptcy proceedings. The High Court judge was informed that the warrant could not be executed because Codd is currently residing in Northern Ireland, outside the jurisdiction. Codd had previously been jailed in December 2013 for alleged non‑compliance with the bankruptcy process and was released after providing a statement of affairs and promising to cooperate. He had given sworn undertakings in January to work with the court‑appointed official, Mr Chris Lehane, and to return leased machinery, but failed to meet with Lehane and did not return items leased by Friends First Finance and Deutsche Leasing Ireland. The court adjourned the matter pending the execution of the warrant once Codd returns to the jurisdiction.
