Summary

In a High Court case concerning a disputed property purchase on Dublin's Wexford Street, Trebleside Designated Activity Company, owner of the Opium Bar, sued John Hallinan, Geraldine Hallinan, Claire Cullen and TFF Food Limited for allegedly failing to complete a deal entered in March. Trebleside claimed it had an agreement to buy the neighbouring property at 38 and 38a Camden Row for over €1 million. The defendants, who own the ground floor lease of 38 Camden Row where the Fat Fox coffee shop operates, were alleged to have reneged on the agreement. After settlement talks, the parties agreed that the Hallinans would receive €1.1 million for the adjoining property and TFF Food would receive €100,000. The settlement also resolved all related planning and legal matters concerning the operation of Opium and Whelan's Bar, both part of the Mercantile Group. The case was therefore settled before any court order was issued.
