Incinerator firm Indaver abandons appeal against legal costs

Waste management firm Indaver has dropped an appeal against costs awarded against it following a legal action in which a judge said its behaviour amounted to an abuse of process.

Indaver abandoned its plans yesterday to appeal the costs order made by the president of the High Court, Mr Justice Nicholas Kearns, two weeks ago.

The judge’s decision marked the end of a protracted legal saga over Indaver’s plans to build a €150m incinerator on a site in Ringaskiddy, Co Cork.
