McKillen appeal next month
The Chief Justice, Mr Justice John Murray, told lawyers for Mr McKillen and NAMA yesterday the appeal would be heard before the end of this law term – December 21 – and “perhaps significantly before then”. Mr Justice Murray added he could not say if the court’s judgment would be delivered by December 21.
Earlier, Maurice Collins SC, for NAMA and the state, said his side regarded the case as of “extreme urgency” and were prepared to continue a stay restraining transfer of the loans to NAMA if the appeal was heard this term.
