Appeal loss for mortgage fraudster
The scheme involved a series of transactions between 2007 and 2010 which deceived lending institutions into approving mortgage applications that contained false information and supporting documents.
Devoy, who was considered the ringleader of the group involved, was found guilty of 17 charges in relation to the scheme in June last year.
