ECJ to rule on Anglo-Quinn case

THE European Court of Justice is being asked to rule on a dispute between Anglo Irish Bank and Sean Quinn’s family.

As the battle between the two continues, it emerged yesterday that the High Court will ask the European court whether the courts in Ireland or Cyprus should decide where the dispute between Anglo and the Quinn family should be heard.

Anglo, which is owed €2.8 billion by the Quinn family, applied for injunctions earlier this year restraining the Quinns from making changes to their international businesses.
