Court

Court of First Instance

Case number

HCB274/1984

The court dismissed the application because the debtor lacked credibility, failed to comply with statutory and procedural obligations (including not filing a statement of affairs), engaged in suspicious transfers and conduct suggesting an attempt to delay payment; these factors did not justify rescinding the receiving order or annulling the adjudication, so the relief sought was refused and costs awarded.

• Rescission of receiving order
• Annulment of adjudication
• Setting aside judgment obtained in absence
• Service of process and attendance at assessment
• Credibility of debtor and failure to submit statement of affairs
• Suspected asset transfers and bankruptcy offences
