Builders sued in mica defective concrete case ordered to hand over documents to homeowners
Briefly

A significant ruling by Mr Justice Mark Sanfey in the Commercial Court has compelled builders involved in the Donegal mica controversy to disclose thousands of essential documents and test results. This legal action emerges from the homeowners' claims against Cassidy Brothers Concrete Products Ltd, Donegal County Council, and the National Standards Authority of Ireland. While these documents have been shared among co-defendants, homeowners have yet to receive them, prompting the court to ensure that they gain access to vital information relevant to their case.
Mr Justice Mark Sanfey emphasized the importance of transparency in the ongoing mica controversy, ordering builders to provide key documents that have previously been shared with co-defendants.

By mandating the discovery of thousands of vital documents, Justice Sanfey aims to level the playing field for homeowners in their legal battle against the involved parties.
The judge's decision to compel builders to disclose essential test results signals a critical step forward in addressing the homeowners' concerns in the mica scandal.
