N. (J.) v. K. (T.) [2002] IEHC 16 (19th February, 2002)

Given the substantial unaccounted funds, suspicious conduct, and risk of frustration of court orders, the defendant's right to travel is outweighed by the need to secure the administration of justice. The Bayer injunction and related orders are justified and proportionate in the circumstances.
