Quinn Jr ‘willing to sell home’ to purge contempt

Seán Quinn Jr, the son of jailed businessman Seán Quinn, is prepared to sell the home he shares with his wife in a bid to purge his contempt of court, the High Court heard yesterday.

Irish Bank Resolution Corporation told the court it wants time to consider Mr Quinn Jr’s offer to give his half of the proceeds of sale of the couple’s apartment to Quinn Properties Ukraine, a company within the Quinn family’s International Property Group (IPG).

Shane Murphy SC, for the bank, said it also wanted to consider a range of matters set out in a letter sent to it by solicitors for the Quinns.
