Court strikes out Twink repossession

A bid by Bank of Scotland to substitute Start Mortgages as the applicant in re-possession proceedings for the home of Adele Condron-King, otherwise known as Twink, was struck out by a judge yesterday.

For two years, Bank of Scotland has been seeking to re-possess Idrone House, Idrone Avenue, Knocklyon, Dublin 16, but Judge Jacqueline Linnane was told the loan had been sold on by the bank to Start Mortgages.

The lender today asked the Circuit Civil Court to amend re-possession proceedings against Ms Condron-King and her estranged husband, David Agnew, to show Start Mortgages as the plaintiff and mortgage loan owner instead of Bank of Scotland.
