Sean Quinn in last-minute Supreme Court appeal


Bankrupt businessman Sean Quinn and his family are seeking a last-minute appeal to the Irish Supreme Court.

Judge Elizabeth Dunne is considering the request, but even if she grants leave to appeal, it may not alter her decision on punitive measures.

Mr Quinn, once Ireland's richest man, is due in court later to discover if he will receive a prison sentence.

He is due to find out if he will be jailed for contempt of court and failure to comply with court orders.

The High Court in Dublin has already found Mr Quinn, his son Sean Jr and nephew Peter Daragh Quinn in contempt.

An appeal to the Supreme Court can take years, though in a high profile case like this it would be fast-tracked.

Therefore, Judge Dunne could grant leave while still sending Sean Quinn, his son Sean and nephew Peter, to prison.

Arrest warrant issued for Sean Quinn's nephew 



Peter Darragh Quinn, a nephew of the bankrupt former billionaire Sean Quinn

The judge made the order after he failed to turn up at the High Court in Dublin on Friday to be sentenced.

Sean Quinn, his son, Sean and nephew Peter Darragh, were found to be in contempt of court in June.

Sean Quinn snr and his son were present in court. In June, the men were given three weeks to comply with a series of court orders before their sentencing.

The judge ruled last month they had put international property beyond the reach of the Irish Bank Resolution Corporation (IBRC), in breach of a court order.

A solicitor for Anglo Irish Bank left court to inform Irish police of the arrest order to bring Peter D Quinn to court.

Gardai have discretion if he is genuinely ill.

It's well past time to lock these f**kers up and melt down the key.

Unbelievable arrogance. They can come out when every penny they've stashed away has been returned AND they've served a suitable sentence for their actions.

With people not paying their fines and people like the Quinns, bankers, lawyers, accountants there'll be work for the builders shortly cos a very, very large prison(s) will be needed if everyone is going to be sent to jail.

Fiscal stimulus we can all agree on

In a twist Russians/Ukranians are saying "assets, what assets" and the local legal firm employed by Quinns to, ahem, move these 'non existant' assets now claim Quinns were never clients.

So Quinns are now totally adrift. Christ on a bike!

The Sopranos had nothing on this. Tony sends Paulie Walnuts and Silvio to Russia to get some local hoods to B&B some loot until the heat dies down. The deal is based on Wise Guys' honour - Tony has Boris's word that he'll hand the swag back when the dust settles, minus an agreed fee, of course.

But some snitch blabs about the Russian deal and the Feds catch up with Tony and the boys. So Tony has no option now - to keep out of the slammer he has to hand over the moolah. So he calls Boris and says "look, the gig is over - send on the dough, 'cos I gotta hand it over to Uncle Sam". You can almost hear Boris shrugging over the phone. "Who are you? What you talkin about? What dough?" Click.

So here we are in the final scene of Season 7, Episode 1. The courtroom. The boys are here to hand over the cash. We know they don't have it. So the credits are about to roll and we look forward to how this will play out next week. But this is the Sopranos. There's always a dramatic and usually comic twist to make sure we come back next week.

Paulie Walnuts is on the lam.

"Boris . . . always Boris"

Brilliant Hardy - I was playing out the scene in my head as I read it.

Can we all agree to jail the Quinns now and then it will be easier to deal with their shenannigans once we know that they aren't on planes to the British Virgin Island, Nauro or Sealand (look Sealand up, it does exist) to try and pull a few more fast ones.

Feck that, give them a medal for putting it up to Anglo.
