Sean Quinn summoned for November court date

ONE of Ireland’s richest men has been summoned to Killenaule District Court by Judge Terence Finn to answer questions on his company’s policy of providing insurance certificates to customers.

Multi-millionaire Sean Quinn, managing director of Quinn Direct Insurance Company, is to appear at the next sitting of the court on Thursday, November 8.

Mr Quinn, who also bought out BUPA Ireland’s operations, had a summons issued at the previous court sitting following insurance charges brought against Tony McCarthy, Old Granary, Ballysloe, who had secured an insurance certificate from the company, but did not have proper insurance cover.
