A man who admitted using a number of aliases in his business affairs has told a court he is unable to meet a £19,000 judgment against him. Mr Victor Smith, of Kennelsfort Green, Palmerstown, Dublin, told the court his real name was Trevor Victor McCoy but he had been reared with the surname Smith. He admitted using names including Victor Smith, Trevor McCoy, Trevor Smith and Jeffrey McCoy, his brother's name.
The court ordered that any sum left from the £76,000 sale of Mr McCoy's home should go to Mr William Finnegan after a building society had deducted a £68,000 debt and costs.
An earlier court had heard that Mr Finnegan, of Parnell Road, Crumlin, Dublin, had bought McCoy's driving school for £19,000 in cash payments. The school turned out to have no assets its cars and offices had been leased.
McCoy told the court he was starting up a new company, College Cabs, in Maynooth, Co Kildare.
