Estoppel In The Irish Courts

The Ebb And Flow Of Unconscionability: Recent Developments

Authors

  • Oonagh Breen

Abstract

The Equity has been differently expressed from time to time. In Dillwyn v Llewelyn, it was expressed as operating through providing valuable consideration which in the circumstances established a contract. In Plimmer v Wellington Corporation, it was expressed as making a revocable licence irrevocable. It has also been expressed from time to time as operating by a form of estoppel. The foundation of it, however, in all these instances, is the recognition by the court that it would be unconscionable in the circumstances for a legal owner fully to exercise is legal rights.
