Ruling may affect hundreds of repo cases; Court to decide legal issues of ‘considerable public importance’

The issues, raised in an appeal by Tanager Designated Activity Company over being refused a repossession order for Rolf Kane’s family home in Clonsilla, Dublin, concern the potential consequences of Bank of Scotland’s transfer of a charge on the property to Tanager when Bank of Scotland had not registered itself as the owner of the charge.

The issues could directly affect hundreds of cases and he would like them to be determined by the Court of Appeal before he decides Tanager’s appeal, said Mr Justice Seamus Noonan.
