Cases

Ardee House on Chamber Street in Dublin's Liberties was broken into around Christmas and has been used as a cafe and social centre since. Eoghan Lynch and Seán Doyle, who say they act for the Revolutionary Housing League, were given three days to leave by Judge Brian Cregan in early June 2026. The deadline expired on a Sunday, but activities at the property continued. On 24 June 2026, the High Court ordered the arrest of both men for breach of court orders, with the case to return the following week.
In court, 18 Jun 2026Suspect · 2 reports - Arrest ordered for breach of injunction at Parkgate House, Dublin Contempt of court (breach of injunction) · Co. Dublin
Members of a group calling itself the Revolutionary Housing League allegedly illegally occupied Parkgate House in Dublin 8 from late August 2022, using the building to house homeless people and hold events. The building's owners, Davy Platform ICAV and Ruirside Developments, which plans to develop the site into 519 rental units, sought a High Court injunction against Seán Doyle, Alan Hall, Diarmuid Breatnach and all persons in occupation. Ms Justice Roberts granted the injunction on 15 September 2022, but the court heard on 20 September that the order had been flouted, with an event of over 200 people held at the premises. On 22 September 2022, Mr Justice Heslin found a flagrant breach of the injunction and directed that all persons in breach be arrested by the Garda and brought before the High Court, with the possibility of committal to Mountjoy Prison.

A group calling itself the Revolutionary Workers Union occupied Lefroy House on Eden Quay, Dublin 1, on 1 May 2022, intending to use the Salvation Army property to house homeless people. The Salvation Army, which was renovating the building for Ukrainian refugees, secured a High Court injunction in May 2022 requiring occupants to vacate. Seán Doyle, a man aged 72, was among those inside when 80 Gardaí removed two men from the building on 8 June 2022 after the 2 June deadline had passed. The two men appeared before the High Court on 9 June 2022, where the judge found them in wilful and deliberate contempt of the court's orders but declined to commit them to prison, adjourning the matter to a later date.
