Row over Opium Bar property purchase adjourned

Summary

In a High Court case, Trebleside Designated Activity Company, owner of Dublin's Opium Bar, has sued John Hallinan, Geraldine Hallinan, Claire Cullen and TFF Food Limited for allegedly failing to complete a purchase agreement for the neighbouring property at 38 and 38a Camden Road, a deal worth over €1m. Trebleside claims the Hallinans entered into the agreement on 27 March, but have since reneged, prompting the company to seek specific performance and injunctions against further objections to the Opium Bar's operations. The defendants have previously contested the bar's noise levels, filing actions in the Circuit Court and High Court, though the Circuit Court case was struck out for lack of jurisdiction. Trebleside also seeks compensation for the property and to resolve outstanding claims. The proceedings were adjourned pending settlement talks and will be re‑heard the following day.
