Summary

In February 2022, Greenmast Limited, the owner and operator of a nursing home with 85 staff and 82 residents near the National Orthopaedic Hospital in Cappagh, Dublin 11, obtained a temporary High Court injunction from Mr Justice Mark Sanfey. The injunction, granted ex‑parte, restrains Cappagh Homes Limited, trading as Derreen Construction, from making or presenting any application to wind up Greenmast over a disputed VAT claim of more than €700,000. Greenmast denies owing the amount and argues that it settled its account with Cappagh Homes in 2018 by paying €6.18 million. The dispute arose after a 2020 determination by Revenue, leading to a demand that over €735,000 be paid within 21 days or a petition for winding up would be filed. Greenmast claims the demand is an abuse of process and that the petition would harm its business and the vulnerable residents. The case is adjourned and will return next week.
