Landlord 'fully entitled' to enter hair salon and change locks, court hears
Summary
In a High Court hearing, the landlord of a unit in the Charlesland Shopping Centre, where Ms Sinead Connolly's Sin E Hair and Beauty Salon had operated for over a decade, asserted that he was fully and legally entitled to re‑enter the premises and change the locks. The dispute centres on alleged arrears of about €77,000. Ms Connolly, who has secured a new premises but it will not be ready for another month, sought orders allowing her and her staff temporary access to retrieve equipment and to serve customers for four weeks. She claimed that agents of the landlord entered the salon and changed the locks. The court heard that the landlord, represented by Eoghan Cole BL, had engaged a security company and re‑entered the property peacefully, a fact he confirmed in a sworn statement. Mr Justice Senan Allen adjourned the matter to allow Ms Connolly to consider and reply to the affidavit.
