Car dealer accused of giving the Revenue the "runaround" gets suspended sentence for civil contempt
A car dealer alleged to be giving the Revenue the "runaround" in its efforts to recover under a €4.95m tax judgment obtained ten years ago has received a two month suspended sentence for civil contempt.
The president of the High Court, Mr Justice Peter Kelly, imposed the sentence today on the basis of his finding John Alex Kane was in contempt of undertakings not to interfere with a Revenue appointed receiver's efforts to sell lands.
