Summary

The High Court granted orders to remove fraudulent filings made with the Companies Registration Office concerning Crean Solutions Ltd, trading as MicksGarage.com. The filings, lodged in early November without the company's consent, listed a 'Jason Carville' as a director, omitted an existing director, and changed the registered address. The company's counsel, Stephen Dowling, told Justice Paul Gilligan that the signatures on the documents were forged and that the filings were an attempt by an unknown party to impersonate the company. The company also received invoices for goods it did not purchase, including one for £22,000. Gardai investigated and found the address listed in the filings was a vacant property and that Jason Carville does not exist. Justice Gilligan ordered the CRO to delete the filings and warned that if the filers are identified, the company could seek an order for their legal costs.
