Significant development in historical sex abuse case where congregation’s legal strategy has led to ‘procedural morass’
What is the difference between a sexual assault on a Protestant school boy and a Catholic school boy?
Other members of the congregation who live abroad, or who have not yet been served, remain as defendants in the case. Andrew Nugent BL, for the plaintiff, told Mr Justice O’Connor his client was told that one defendant, Br John Gibson, had an address in Arbour Hill Prison, in Dublin, but when papers were served on him they were returned marked “released”. “We don’t know where he is. It appears certainly he is no longer in Arbour Hill Prison.
He also granted an application from Mr Nugent that Br David Gibson be ordered to disclose any information he had about grants of probate or letters of administration in relation to 14 brothers who were on a list supplied to the plaintiff in 2021 but who are now known to be deceased. In opposing the order in relation to Brs John Gibson and William Ryan, Mr Rubalcava said it didn’t seem right, in the balance of justice, that Br David Gibson should be put in the position of receiving the papers on behalf of co-defendants.
