Ireland's Supreme Court determined Michelle Maher not liable for the previous owner's derelict sites levy.

Ireland's Supreme Court ruled that Michelle Maher, who bought a property in 2014, was not liable for a €50,000 derelict sites levy imposed on the previous owner. The court dismissed an appeal by Dublin City Council, which claimed the decision could affect funding for local authorities. The judges stated that the 1990 Derelict Sites Act only imposes the obligation to pay the levy on the owner of the land.
