Judge urges mediation in Wright family dispute
Summary
In a High Court case involving the Wright family, Mr Justice Brian O'Moore urged the parties to seek mediation to resolve their dispute. The judge noted that the parties were willing to mediate and warned that, if they did not, the case would proceed to a five‑day hearing. The dispute centres on the Wrights of Howth group's claim that they were wrongfully locked out of a storage unit, Store E, West Pier, Howth, by two family members not part of the business. The court had previously granted a temporary injunction restraining former shareholder Mark Wright and his daughter Shona Wright from obstructing access to the premises. The injunction also prohibits the defendants from placing locks or access‑control devices on the store. The case will return to court later this month, with the Department of Agriculture and the Marine applying to join the proceedings.
