Gerardine Scanlon rejected claims about retaining or sharing confidential data in the High Court, reported on 23 May 2017.

The claims arose after Grant Thornton mistakenly sent her a computer disk containing information from unrelated files. The firm sought orders affecting her defence and counterclaim, while Scanlon opposed the applications and sought to add other parties. Mr Justice Paul Gilligan was expected to give his decision in a few weeks.
