Anglo Irish Bank has been granted High Court injunctions restraining a solicitor based in Midleton, Co Cork, Declan Guilfoyle, who claims he is owed money by Anglo Irish Bank, from seeking to liquidate the State-owned bank.
Mr Justice Daniel O’Keeffe restrained Mr Guilfoyle until next Wednesday from advertising a petition to wind up Anglo.
Mr Guilfoyle carried out work for the bank, advising it on matters relating to the National Asset Management Agency and claims he is owed some €100,000 in fees.
Barrister John Breslin, for Anglo Irish Bank, said Mr Guilfoyle’s bid was an abuse of process.
