John Tobin was discharged from bankruptcy by the High Court on 17 June 2024, after an out-of-court settlement. The matter was before Mr Justice Mark Sanfey.

The bankruptcy followed a Revenue summons after judgments for about €405,808. Tobin had been adjudicated bankrupt in November 2017, and the Official Assignee later sought an extension in 2021 over an alleged failure to fully co-operate regarding his assets.

The settlement required Tobin to make a financial contribution to his bankruptcy estate and provide additional documentation and information. The court struck out the Official Assignee’s motions seeking a further extension and formally ordered Tobin’s discharge. The proceedings were reported on 17 June 2024.
