The amount in question was £267,943. Prior to Noonan leaving his Dean Court position, his firm (A F Noonan) was owed £114,750, which had been reduced to £82,000 on his departure.
Soon afterwards, the club was presented with further invoices totalling £120,000 for alleged work over the previous two years.
A record of this didn't exist in the form of board minutes, quotes, or contract, and the High Court dismissed the additional claim against the club, ordering AFC Bournemouth to pay the outstanding £82,000, plus interest and VAT.
With all of this going on in the background has hampered Sean O'Driscoll's ability to prepare the squad for the new season, as no players could be signed if the closure of the club was imminent.
The club has now pledged to sign players in time for the new season.
Cherries chairman Peter Phillips told the Bournemouth Evening Echo: "I am delighted with the outcome, my only regret is that it had to go to court. We have been trying for months to do a deal with Andy
"The last few weeks have been very difficult under the court order and it has put Sean in an impossible position. How can he go and find new players and not be able to make them offers?
"We had a hard enough time just doing the contract renewals and always run on a very tight ship so for this to happen was a nightmare.
"There was the chance we could have gone under so you can't just go around signing people. We had to be very careful. Now this decision has been made we can get back to some sort of normal business".
