The High Court has granted orders of possessions of ten homes and properties at its weekly chancery summonses hearings in Dublin today.
Almost 60 cases were listed before Ms Justice Elizabeth Dunne in one of the busiest hearings of the year. Some 23 cases were initiated by Start Mortgages, which provides loans to people who have difficulty getting mortgages elsewhere.
Other banks seeking possession orders included IIB Homeloans, GE Capital Woodchester, ACC Bank, AIB, Bank of Ireland Mortgage Bank, National Irish Bank, Irish Life and Permanent and Irish Nationwide. Twelve new cases were listed.
The majority of cases were adjourned to give homeowners more time to pay arrears or reach agreements with the lending institutions.
