O’Donnell to bring in experts on banking

Solicitor Brian O’Donnell says he will bring in expert witnesses on banking regulation as part of the latest challenge by him and his wife Mary Patricia to their bankruptcy, the High Court heard yesterday.

They are seeking to annul their bankruptcy which was confirmed in February by the Supreme Court.

Yesterday, Mr O’Donnell sought additional time to respond to a sworn statement provided to court by Bank of Ireland in which it says the challenge should be dismissed on the basis that the matter has been fully dealt with in the High and Supreme Courts.
