Kenny ‘betrayed friendship’ over land

RTÉ’S highest paid TV and radio star Pat Kenny was yesterday accused of a shocking betrayal of friendship by trying to take possession of a potentially valuable piece of land.

A High Court judge will give his decision today on a bid by the Late Late Show host Pat Kenny to have a legal dispute with his neighbour over a strip of land adjoining their homes dismissed.

Mr Justice Frank Clarke will rule on an application by lawyers for Mr Kenny and his wife Kathy to strike out proceedings taken by neighbour and retired solicitor Gerard Charlton, who suffers from heart trouble, and his wife Maeve over ownership of the land known as Gorse Hill in Dalkey, Dublin.
