An application to jail model Glenda Gilson and her brother Damien over their failure to provide adequate statements of financial affairs for a wound-up car sales company, of which they are both directors, has been withdrawn at the High Court.
However, Ms Justice Mary Finlay Geoghegan ruled the liquidator of the company, Gary Lennon, was entitled to the costs of bringing his motion for the Gilsons’ attachment and committal over their delay in providing those statements.
Noting Mr Gilson accepted he was primarily responsible for the running of the Gilson Motor Company, she ordered that he should indemnify his sister in relation to liability for those costs. Both Gilsons were in court yesterday.
The judge said the fact Ms Gilson may not have had anything to do with the day-to-day running of the company did not exempt her from responsibility.
