Point Village begins court action against Dunnes

An action brought by Harry Crosbie’s Point Village Development firm against Dunnes Stores over its failure to fit out an anchor store at Dublin’s Point Village has opened before the High Court.

The proceedings arise from agreements entered into in Feb 2008 between Dunnes Stores and Point Village Development for the building and operation of a flagship anchor store at the North Quay Wall at Point Village.

The agreements originally involved Dunnes paying €46m, plus Vat, for certain works. However, a number of disputes arose between the parties and court proceedings were initiated.
