The sale by a Cork restaurateur of a $16m (€13.5m) mansion in Miami’s exclusive Coral Gables neighbourhood has prompted a legal dispute between the woman and her former romantic partner.
Patricia Toscano, whose daughter now owns and runs the well-known Ristorante Rossini on Princes Street in Cork city, has been accused of reneging on an oral agreement with her ex-partner, New York lawyer Michael Griffith, to split almost $10m in net proceeds from the $15.8m sale of the home last year.
In court filings, Ms Toscano (68) has denied that such an agreement ever existed, and she appears to have walked away with close to $8m from the sale of the mansion.
