Strokestown eviction case to be heard in October
Summary
The High Court application by KBC Bank to evict a family from their home near Strokestown in County Roscommon will be heard on 10 October. Ms Justice Leonie Reynolds rejected a request by David McGann to consolidate separate proceedings he has initiated with the bank's injunction application. Mr McGann seeks to challenge the validity of the possession order executed by the Roscommon County Registrar and to prevent any party from taking possession of the property. The judge found that consolidating the cases, which involve different parties and distinct issues, would unnecessarily increase legal costs. The McGann siblings were evicted from the farm property in December 2018 following a repossession order obtained by KBC several years earlier. The registered owner, Michael Anthony McGann, fell into arrears on a loan and owed approximately €431,000 to the bank. The family subsequently returned to the property.
