High Court proceedings against the founders of the suicide bereavement charity Console have been adjourned for a week.
The court was told more time was needed to consider three sworn statements which had been submitted yesterday by Paul Kelly, his wife Patricia and their son Tim.
Lawyers for the interim chief executive David Hall told the court both sides also needed time to agree living expenses for the Kellys as injunctions freezing assets and bank accounts remain in place.
Mr Justice Paul Gilligan said any motion about living expenses could be brought to court in the next week if necessary.
He adjourned the case for one week.
Mr Kelly was given until yesterday at 1pm to provide statements of assets and asset transfers made since 2012.
The suicide bereavement charity has been mired in controversy after revelations about questionable financial dealings and governance were revealed by the RTÉ Investigations Unit.
The HSE has said that services continue to be provided by Console, pending decisions on the future of the organisation.
It said that the counselling services are continuing and the helpline is manned.
The future of the charity is due to be decided later this week at a meeting of its board, with a decision also expected shortly on whether another agency or several agencies will be taking over its services.
The HSE will appear before the Public Accounts Committee on Friday to discuss the controversy.
