High court grants family repossession reprieve

Judge Anthony Hunt said Ian Fitzgibbon’s application for a stay was being made at the last minute as his family home was due to be repossessed by ACC Bank at 1pm.
Judge Hunt said he was prepared to give Mr Fitzgibbon, his wife Geraldine and their two sons “a bit of breathing space” by acceding to his application to have a three-week stay on the order for execution.
