June 30, 2023
The June issue of Irish Civil Litigation Update is now live for subscribers to Irish Civil Litigation.
This month features the case of Kenneth Price v Ann Douglas. This matter concerned an ex-parte application to deem the service of proceedings good or in the alternative to permit substituted service. The original defendant to the proceedings was deceased (the deceased defendant) and by order of the High Court, her personal representative was substituted as defendant (the substituted defendant). The plaintiff, once that order was made, tried to effect service on a solicitor who he indicated, is retained by and in contact with the substituted defendant. That solicitor is not, however on record in the proceedings and a different firm had represented the deceased defendant. That firm was allowed to come off record informally and without having provided details of an address for service of further documents. As such, it appeared that there was no solicitor on record for the substituted defendant. The question was whether service remained good.

Casey v Redspokes LTD trading as Redspokes Adventure Tours [2023] IEHC 297 (High Court (General), Ireland - High Court, Simons J, 12 June 2023)
The High Court, in personal injuries proceedings, refused to grant defendant's motion to dismiss the proceedings, where the plaintiff, who was domiciled in Ireland, was injured in the course of a cycling holiday and the defendant company was domiciled in the UK, but the accident occurred in Sri Lanka, on the grounds that: (1) The Irish courts have jurisdiction to deal with the plaintiff's claim for breach of a consumer contract; (2) there was an intention on the part of the defendant to establish commercial consumers from the EU, including Ireland; (3) although the defendant did not oversee the plaintiff's air travel to Sri Lanka, it did facilitate pick up from the airport and a co-ordination with the plaintiff's flights; (4) not arranging air transport further meant there was no material distinction between the position of someone domiciled in the UK or in Ireland; and (5) an online booking system required details of residence and postal address.
