Activists in court to fight building eviction
Legal representatives of the owners of Stapleton House on Oliver Plunkett Street have in recent days served summonses on several individuals claiming they are trespassing in the building. They are expected to apply for an injunction at Cork Circuit Court this morning seeking the eviction of the group from the premises.
Liam Mullaney, who has been among the group occupying the building and who will represent the group in court, said they fully intend to contest the eviction process, and to challenge several claims made in the summonses about the building’s relationship to the National Assets Management Agency (Nama).
