Gannon Refuses Deed Signing in Long Contempt Case

James Gannon remains in jail on contempt charges for refusing to sign a deed to his sister Mary Reil over a Swetland Street property.

Gannon’s stance, age about 60, and repeated refusals mark a century‑long land contest and a string of court battles.
