FOLIO: 1242

COURT NO: 17/095789



LANDS OF DERRYLILEAGH ROAD, PORTADOWN,

CO. ARMAGH, BT62 1TQ



BELIEVED REGISTERED OWNER: ESTATE OF

MATILDA SIMMONS OR JOSEPH SIMMONS

TAKE NOTICE that Francis Smyth of 37 Derrylileagh Road, Birches, Portadown, Co Armagh, BT62 1TQ has applied to the Land Registry under Section 53 of the Land Registration Act (Northern Ireland) 1970 to be registered as full owner of the land comprised in the above folio.



Russell Simmons of 2 Ripley Terrace, Portadown, Co Armagh, BT62 3ED objected to said application. The matter is now scheduled before the County Court Judge sitting at Armagh County Court on 22nd October 2025 for review and 17th December 2025 for hearing.



In the absence of anyone to represent the Estates the County Court Judge has the power by virtue of County Court Rules to proceed in the absence of anyone to represent the estate. Any decision the Judge may then make would bind the estate and any beneficiaries.



If you wish to represent the estate of either Matilda Simmons or Joseph Simmons or retain your interest as a potential beneficiary or wish to make representations, your presence is required at Armagh Court on 22nd October 2025 and 17th December 2025.

If we do not hear from you prior to said review and hearing, we will assume that you are relinquishing any interest and proceed in your absence.

We strongly advise anyone interested to seek independent legal advice prior to this date.
