Citywest receiver sues to finish sale

A receiver appointed over the Citywest hotel, conference centre, and golf course development in Dublin is suing a company for alleged failure to complete the purchase of the complex.

Martin Ferris, receiver of certain Citywest assets held by HSS, Jeffel, Rattler Ltd, and Citywest Resort Ltd, wants orders requiring CW Hotel Investments 2013 Ltd, of Westland Square, Dublin, to complete the €28m purchase of the complex.

The case was transferred to the Commercial Court yesterday by Mr Justice Peter Kelly on consent of the parties. He made directions for exchange of legal documents and returned the matter to May.
