The case Michael Quigley—V—Peter Kay and Susan Kay, represented by James O'Brien & Co/Simon Carty Legal & Advisory, appeared second on the list before Judge James McCourt at Nenagh Circuit civil Court on Tuesday.

The court registrar told Judge McCourt the matter had been adjourned.

The case is due back before the court for mention in April when a new date for mention will be scheduled.

It’s understood the dispute centres around a small portion of land, which both the Kays and Mr Quigley, a local farmer, believe they legally own.

It is reported that the Phoenix Nights and Car Share Lancashire-born star has been summoned to appear before the court in Nenagh.

The newspaper reported that Mr Quigley, who is in his 50s, declined to discuss the case when approached by The Mail on Sunday last week.
