Sean Dunne seeking injunction in New York against son, court hears

A High Court action by businessman Sean Dunne’s Irish bankruptcy trustee concerning a valuable Dublin 4 property may be affected by injunction proceedings initiated in New York by Mr Dunne against his son John.

It emerged on Friday that Sean Dunne, a witness but not a party to the High Court case, has separately initiated injunction proceedings in New York aimed at restraining John Dunne using funds held by Cypriot registered Yesreb Holdings Ltd, the defendant in the High Court case and a firm of which John Dunne has been described as a director, to settle the High Court proceedings.
