Injunction subject wants HSE to stop using "My Options" name, court hears

Summary

In March 2019 the High Court heard an injunction case brought by the Health Services Executive (HSE) against Mr Eamonn Murphy, who the HSE says has set up a website called www.myoptions.website that it claims is a misleading passing‑off of the HSE's crisis pregnancy service 'MyOptions'. The HSE had obtained a temporary injunction preventing Mr Murphy or anyone under his control from using the domain or any variation of the term 'my options' until a further court order. Mr Murphy denies wrongdoing, seeks to lift the injunction and has asked for more time to secure legal representation. The HSE, represented by Jonathan Newman SC and Michael Binchy BL, is prepared to keep the injunction in place until the full hearing. The judge adjourned the case for a month, leaving the injunction in effect, and declined to order the HSE to stop using the name 'My Options'.
