Businesswoman jailed for contempt of court

A businesswoman has been jailed by the High Court over her refusal to comply with orders not to interfere with the receivership of several properties she and her husband own.

The order was made against Wendy Whitty, along with her husband Scott Dyer, who the court heard have not complied with an injunction not to interfere with several properties based in Wexford and Cork, including continuing to collect rent from the tenants.
