High Court hears Cork woman reject Grant Thornton claims about confidential information

A Cork woman has rejected claims by accountancy firm Grant Thornton she disseminated or has retained any confidential material contained on a computer disk mistakenly sent by the firm to her.

Gerardine Scanlon from Mallow said some "fairly scandalous" comments about her were made on behalf of Grant Thornton, including claims she demanded €1m to make the case go away and had breached court orders.
