Case against landlords adjourned after agreement to abide by injunction
Summary
In February 2018 the High Court continued an injunction against Mr Paul Howard and Ms Una McClean, owners of several Dublin properties, after reports that tenants were forcibly removed from an apartment in Mountjoy Square. The injunction, obtained by Mr Ken Fennell, prohibits the defendants, their agents and anyone aware of the order from trespassing, damaging, or collecting rent from the tenants. It also requires them to hand over possession of all the properties to the receiver, Promontoria (Oyster) DAC, and to refrain from interfering with the receivership. Mr Fennell, represented by Stephen Byrne Bl, cited concerns for tenant safety and alleged attempts by the defendants to thwart the receivership. Ms Justice Caroline Costello agreed to continue the orders and adjourned the matter to 13 February. The defendants have agreed to abide by the injunction and to hand over any rent collected after the order.
