Dany Boon was awarded €4.87 million in damages after a High Court judge ruled on 13 December 2022 that several entities had defrauded him.

The judge also appointed receivers over assets and made permanent freezing orders against assets linked to the defendants.

The assets include three sailing boats, a house in Youghal, County Cork, and money in bank accounts.

The court declined to award damages against Sail & Motor Navigation Company Limited, finding insufficient evidence, while two other companies denied the claims and opposed orders.
