The High Court granted possession of a property to a financial corporation after the leaseholder defaulted on mortgage repayments. The original decision by the Circuit Court was upheld, confirming the corporation's right to seek possession under statute, following the leaseholder's failure to engage with the lender or avail of alternative options to address the mortgage arrears. The leaseholder's appeal, which contested the transfer of the loan and the validity of the charge, was dismissed as the court found no credible defense against the possession order.
