THE latest round of a dispute between two businessmen continued in the Royal Court yesterday.

Dan Hubert on his way to court yesterday

Alan Crowe made a civil application against Dan Hubert and Island Waste. It was intended to stop an extraordinary general meeting of Island Waste taking place today at which Mr Crowe could potentially have lost his place on the board.

After a date was set for the substantive hearing and following consultation between the parties, it was agreed that nothing would be done to remove Mr Crowe from the board against his will until the case had concluded.

Sitting alone, Lt-Bailiff Patrick Talbot, QC, was asked to record the agreement and was not called upon to make a ruling.
