A High Court judge has found that an elderly widow was defrauded out of her family home by one of her daughters.

Marie Gibson had sued parties including her daughter Pauline Gibson, as well as a solicitor who had allegedly advised the parties regarding a loan agreement relating to the property, and a fund appointed receiver, over what Mr Justice Brian Cregan found was the fraudulent transfer of Marie's home that occurred in 2003, but was not discovered until 2017.
