Mother an ‘innocent victim’ in dispute over property

A High Court judge has allowed the mother of three young children, who is “the innocent victim” of a dispute over possession of a Dublin property, to stay on in the house until February.

Mr Justice Paul Gilligan said the woman was not entitled to, but should be allowed remain at the property at Cedar Brook Avenue, Cherry Orchard, Dublin 10.

The property is the subject of proceedings between its owner, Gerry Ward, and Simon Coyle, who was appointed receiver over the property by Bank of Ireland.
