Temporary Injunction Granted in Equestrian Center Asset Dispute
Table of Contents
An international eventing company owner, michelle Kenny, has secured a temporary injunction to prevent the transportation and sale of assets, including six horses and a horse truck, following their removal from her equestrian centre. The dispute centers around allegations of unauthorized asset removal by a defendant whose identity has not yet been publicly released.
Background of the Dispute
The legal action stems from the alleged unauthorized removal of important assets from michelle kenny’s equestrian centre.According to an affidavit filed in court, these assets include a horse truck, two trailers, jumps, poles, and trees, collectively valued at €160,000. Further, Ms. Kenny alleges the defendant was attempting to obtain duplicate passports for the six horses.
A key piece of evidence presented in the affidavit details a phone conversation between Ms. Kenny and a veterinarian, in which the vet informed her of the defendant’s request for duplicate horse passports. This suggests a potential intention to transport and possibly sell the animals without ms. Kenny’s consent.
Timeline of Events
The following timeline details the key events leading to the injunction:
- September 4th: Ms. Kenny met wiht her solicitors to discuss the situation.
- September 5th: Ms. kenny’s solicitors sent a formal warning letter to the defendant.
- September 9th: Mr.Justice Rory Mulcahy of the High Court granted a temporary injunction preventing the transportation and sale of the disputed assets.
Control of Business Assets & Interaction
Beyond the physical assets, Ms.Kenny claims the defendant has control over critical business communication channels. Specifically, the defendant controls the company’s primary email address, and also its social media accounts and website.Ms. Kenny states she is unable to access these accounts, which she asserts are responsible for generating approximately 90% of the business’s leads.
Financial Impact
The value of the assets taken is estimated at €160,000. This includes:
| Asset | Estimated Value |
|---|---|
| Horse Truck | (Value not specified, included in total) |
| Two Trailers | (Value not specified, included in total) |
| Jumps, Poles, and Trees | (Value not specified, included in total) |
| Six Horses | (Value not specified, included in total) |
| Total | €160,000 |
The loss of access to the company’s email and social media accounts also represents a significant financial risk, given that these channels generate the majority of the business’s leads.
