A judge ordered Michael Flatley to pay €1.1 million upfront as security for costs ahead of his €30 million court action relating to works at his Cork mansion. The security is required to cover potential legal costs if the claim does not succeed. Other parties sought €2.8 million in security for costs. Flatley’s legal team requested that the Commercial Court refuse the full €2.8 million and instead limit security for costs to one third. The order requires substantial immediate funding and may affect the conduct and financing of the litigation.
