Irish courts can decide dispute over arrested €1.2m motor pleasure boat, High Court rules

The Irish courts have jurisdiction to decide a dispute over an arrested motor pleasure boat bought for more than €1.2m by a company of an Irish-born tax lawyer, a High Court judge has ruled.

The M.V. Connoisseur was arrested last August on foot of a High Court order and remains moored in Dun Laoghaire port.
