Photograph: Bryan O'BrienA freight company has until April 5th to remove thousands of shipping container units from an unauthorised site in Dublin or its directors could face applications for contempt for disobeying a High Court order.
In 2020, Stateline agreed a 10-year lease with Tesco to use the land for its containers. However, Fingal Co Council brought enforcement proceedings against both Tesco and Stateline, saying the use was unauthorised development. The Tesco case was settled on the basis that Stateline would move out but with a 12-month stay on the agreement to cease use of the site for container storage. Tesco agreed but said that question was for the High Court to decide.
Last month, following an appeal by Stateline. the Court of Appeal upheld the High Court decision and said Stateline must be out by April 5th.
