Photograph: Frank MillerA company of developer Greg Kavanagh will have to provide evidence it can pay the legal costs of a High Court case it is taking over what is claimed to be an attempt to extract a €6m payment from it in a dispute over a 96-home development next to Inchanappa House in Ashford, Co Wicklow.
Beakonford, which Mr Kavanagh is a director of, last year brought an action against Inchanappa House owner Oonagh Stokes and local resident Barbara Wilding seeking an order that an appeal lodged by Ms Wilding with An Bord Pleanála over development at Inchanappa South be withdrawn. Ms Stokes then brought proceedings claiming Mr Kavanagh was engaged in a campaign of intimidation and threats against her including directing his workers to pull down a fence separating the two properties and damaging lighting on her driveway.Mr Kavanagh has denied those claims and says they are essentially aimed at no more than delaying, frustrating and inhibiting the housing development.
All three cases have yet to be heard but in the meantime, the first one, taken by Beakonford, has been progressing with the Stokes side making an application for security for costs which means the company must show it has the money to pay the legal bill should it lose the case.
