An appeal by Coolmore magnate John Magnier over the 751-acre Golden Vale tillage farm and mansion has been described as 'vexatious' and as delaying care for a disabled son. The High Court awarded Magnier the highest possible legal costs after a judge concluded he had lied during the Barne Estate lawsuit. Mr Justice Max Barrett made the costs decision. Lawyers for Magnier indicated an intention to appeal the loss. The case centers on ownership and conduct related to the Golden Vale estate and has drawn strong criticism over the appeal's impact.
