A couple who claimed a bank breached the Central Bank’s code of conduct on mortgage arrears in pursuing €5.1 million judgment orders against them with a view to repossessing their home over mortgage arrears have secured a High Court stay on the bank’s action.
The president of the High Court, Mr Justice Nicholas Kearns, granted the stay to John and Joan Nagle, of Falmore, Falls Road, Shankill. Earlier, counsel for the couple said they had sought the appeal after the bank’s rejection of repayment proposals advanced in May last year.
Student claims injuncted video is on YouTube
A student falsely accused of taxi fare evasion in an internet video is to seek High Court permission to bring a contempt of court action against YouTube after, it was alleged, the clip was put up again on the web.
The 22-year-old student previously obtained injunctions against YouTube, Google, Facebook and a number of other sites and user names to prevent republication of a video that shows a number of young people leaving a taxi without paying the fare.
