"Land League" blocking repossession of Brian O'Donnell's home

Why are the courts tolerating this nonsense. We have often read where the higher courts have refused to listen to some appeals. Surely this carry on by the O'Donnell's is farcical. I would have thought that they would have been in jail at this stage for squatting. They are squatters fair and square.
 
Supreme Court might decide they don't believe his case is of sufficient legal importance or that no major act of injustice has already taken place, and therefore may not want to hear it.

The fact that he got another 2 weeks is just beyond belief.
 
He's entitled to do what the law allows him to do. In fairness it's not a bad pad to be living rent free in . :p
 
"You are correct , proves the Law is an ass."

No. It proves that the O'Donnells will use every available opportunity open to them to try to foil and thwart the bank. They have a legal background and are better placed than most to do so.

"The word Law , passes itself off as justice."

What does this even mean? Law encompasses the rules that society puts in place for their citizens to live by and observe. Law and justice are not mutually exclusive.

"Law is for big pockets"

You do a huge disservice to the many organisations that assist people - like FLAC, Coolock Community Law Centre, the Free Legal Aid scheme

But we don't see FLAC down the courts helping people with repossession cases do we. I've no idea why that is, but it most certainly would seem to be an unfair system whereby banks have teams of lawyers and ordinary people, not all, but most, have no legal representation.
 
They may not be in Court but they are there in the background - and I did not mention MABS or IMHO

And most people in this position do not have a defence as in they do not owe the money, they have a reason why they cannot pay. That is a societal issue not a legal issue.

I hear you .

We can trade verbiage on what is law and what is justice.
I have no doubt that Law and Justice should be anchored on Fair Play.
They are not so anchored.
It is instructive to watch the antics (in Law) on this case.
I do not do a huge disservice , nor would I dare to, nor would I want it perceived, on organisations such as FLAC,
Without them Joe Soap would be banjaxed and the disparity on access to Law would be worse.
