The Supreme Court will today consider an appeal by telecommunications service provider Meridian against a High Court decision to discharge an order restraining Eircell from terminating with it a mobile phone airtime supply contract. The High Court also lifted an order preventing Eircell, without the court's permission, from presenting a petition to wind up Meridian. However, the Supreme Court later put a stay on the High Court's orders pending consideration of the case today.
