Summary

The High Court has reserved judgement on a case where Davy Platform ICAV, a fund that provides social housing, seeks an injunction against Mr Gerard O'Sullivan, who it says is the former owner of an apartment at Rosebank Place, Clondalkin, Dublin 22. The fund alleges that Mr O'Sullivan has re‑entered the two‑bedroom property without lawful permission and claims it is his family home. It also claims that Ms Fiona O'Brien, a niece of Mr O'Sullivan, is trespassing on the premises, asserting she lives there under a lease granted by Mr O'Sullivan. The fund, represented by Michael O'Sullivan BL, requests that the defendants vacate the property and stop trespassing or interfering with it. Mr O'Sullivan, representing himself, denies any wrongdoing and says he is the owner, and seeks to have the fund's application struck out. Ms O'Brien was not represented or present.
