Debtor given High Court’s first protective certificate

Although such certificates protecting a debtor from bankruptcy proceedings have already been issued at Circuit Court level, this was the first to be dealt with in the High Court.
Ms Justice Marie Baker said yesterday she was satisfied to issue the certificate in the case of Mairead Edwards, Kilnagleary, Carrigaline, Co Cork, having considered the application from the new Insolvency Service of Ireland over the debt.
