A Dublin couple blocked a €1.15M mortgage repossession due to unclear ownership and legal flaws, forcing a full trial.
A Dublin couple has blocked a repossession attempt by Pepper Finance over a €1.15 million mortgage on their Killiney home, originally taken out in 2008 with Bank of Scotland.
Circuit Court Judge Geoffrey Shannon ruled that Pepper’s claim lacked clear proof of ownership due to gaps in the mortgage’s transfer chain and raised concerns about data protection, servicer status, and contract validity.
The judge found the couple had presented a fair and reasonable defense, requiring a full trial with live testimony instead of summary dismissal.
The case highlights unresolved issues in cross-border mortgage transfers and borrower rights.
