Brother ordered to pay €250,000 over drilling-company dispute in Kerry

A man must pay €245,000 to buy out his brother in a dispute over the running of a former drilling company in Co Kerry they jointly owned, the High Court ruled.

The ruling arose out of a failure to honour an agreement a year ago to settle the dispute between Noel and Leo Hilliard over their former Hilliard Drilling Ltd business, in Listowel, Co Kerry.
