Sean Dunne and trust seek to set aside freezing orders
Summary
Sean Dunne and an Isle of Man trust have applied to the High Court to set aside freezing orders that were obtained by his children. The orders, granted last month, prevent the defendants from selling or dissipating the proceeds of sale of two valuable properties at Churchfields, Straffon, Co Kildare, and from dealing with the proceeds of one of those sales, which was sold for about €1 million. Traviata Ltd, a company registered in the Isle of Man and fully owned by the SD Trust, and Bessilton Holdings Ltd, the registered owner of the properties, are the parties subject to the injunctions. Mr Dunne, who now lives in the UK, argues that the injunctions are fraudulent and that the assets belong to the trust, not to him.
