Former 2FM DJ Eoghan McDermott has launched legal action in the High Court against social media giant Twitter.
Mr McDermott filed papers against Twitter International Unlimited Company on Tuesday.
It is unclear what the action relates to.
His solicitors, Dublin-based firm Harringtons, has confirmed that Mr McDermott had taken the case.
Twitter had not responded to a request for comment on the matter at the time of publication.
The 38-year-old quit his role co-hosting the RTÉ station’s breakfast show in March of 2021 following a brief period of unscheduled annual leave after more than six years with the broadcaster.
He had previously presented with Spin FM, along with a period working in London, before joining RTÉ in 2014.
