Paul O'Shea was ordered to hand over land in a contempt case at the High Court on 7 May 2015. The property is at Davidstown, Castledermot, Co Kildare.

Mr Justice Paul Gilligan directed O'Shea to give receiver George Maloney possession of the land at noon the following day. O'Shea had previously spent 15 days in prison for contempt of orders restraining interference with the receiver's efforts to sell the property.

O'Shea denied obstructing the receiver and said claims made against him were misleading. The judge adjourned proceedings seeking the attachment and committal of others, including Ben Gilroy, for alleged contempt.

This case may have concluded differently. The outcome has not yet been confirmed by a public source we could find.
