A legal application aimed at securing the sale of the 54-bed Greenhills nursing home in Co Tipperary was mentioned briefly before Mr Justice John Cooke yesterday before being adjourned to Oct 15.

In Feb 2012, judgment for €1.9m was entered at the Commercial Court on consent against James Reilly, South Shore Rd, Rush, Co Dublin, and four others jointly and severally under a settlement of proceedings over an alleged contract to buy the home.
