Three sisters granted injunction stopping England-based sibling from reducing assets in Republic below €135,000 pending hearing of dispute
Three siblings have obtained a High Court order preventing their sister from dissipating part of the proceeds of the family home which was sold for €665,000.
The judge also rejected an application by Anne to dismiss their proceedings as having no basis or being brought too late.Liam Cunningham: ‘I tell people I’m a migrant. It messes with them.

In 2007, the house was transferred to the joint names of Mary and Anne, who now lives in Hyde Tyning, The Knapp, Minchinhampton, Stroud, Gloucestershire. In a 2017 will, Mary said her wish was that Anne would inherit the property.When the house went on the market after their mother’s death, the three sisters brought proceedings against Anne, represented by senior counsel Andrew Walker and Liam Bell, instructed by Dermot McNamara & Co Solicitors.
The judge said that while Anne later admitted she had prepared all the disclaimers for execution, an earlier affidavit she swore gave the impression that they were prepared by, or at the instigation of, the solicitor dealing with the estate and that he had corresponded with the siblings to secure their agreement.
In relation to a denial by Kathleen that she “knowingly” executed a disclaimer, Anne “belatedly volunteered” that she accompanied her mother to Derry to visit Kathleen and that she was present when the disclaimer was signed, he said.
