Quinn family ordered to disclose 100,000 files

A High Court judge has made orders requiring members of bankrupt Seán Quinn’s family to disclose thousands of documents to a team appointed by a receiver for a decision on whether they are relevant to the Quinns’ assets and tax affairs.

Cian Ferriter, for receiver Declan Taite, sought the orders after arguing there were “question marks” over the integrity of the categorisation of documents by the Quinns.

Mr Taite, whose appointment was sought by the Irish Bank Resolution Corporation, had sought all files relevant to the Quinns’ personal finances and tax affairs for the proceedings in which the bank alleges a conspiracy to strip assets from the family’s international property group.
