Ms Eileen Blackall, who fought a legal battle for years in an unsuccessful bid to save her family home at Marino Park, Blackrock, Co Dublin, faces penury.
Creditors to the Blackall estate gathered in the County Registrar's office yesterday claiming payment of debts that will wipe out the £440,000 a building developer paid into court for the Blackall holding.
Among them was Ulster Bank, which is claiming £174,000, including £123,000 interest on a loan of just over £50,000 taken out in 1988.
The Bank of Ireland has waived 90 per cent of an undisclosed figure it was owed.
A firm of architects is seeking fees of £30,000. Court solicitors' costs have topped £100,000 and an estate agent is seeking £10,000.
The Blackrock holding was sold, by order of the Circuit Civil Court, to builders Chess ington Ltd for £400,000. An extra £40,000 was raised in interest owing on the purchase price.
Eileen's sister Rose Black all died a week after her former home was conveyed to the developers.
Yesterday, the County Registrar, Ms Susan Ryan, called a meeting of creditors. The Press was not allowed to stay and report on the meeting.
The proceedings were adjourned until June 28th to allow Ms Eileen Blackall's legal team to make written submissions.
