premise: A TORY Island hotelier who built a car park on the remains of a 150-year-old holiday home which burnt down may have to pay damages to its former owner. A High Court judge who is presiding over a legal row over a holiday home which allegedly "disappeared" and became a car park for an adjoining hotel yesterday said the case may be dealt with on the basis of unjust enrichment by the hotel. This requires someone who has obtained a benefit at the expense of another, without a legal justification, to provide compensation or restitution for their loss. Film maker, Neville Presho (61) has brought a High Court action against hotelier Patrick Doohan and his hotel, Ostan Thoraigh Comhlacth Teoranta, for ongoing trespass and physical damage to his one-time holiday home on Tory Island, off the Donegal coast.
hypothesis: Patrick Doohan is the owner of a hotel on Tory island.
