    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCB7505/2014

    The trustees' agreement for continuing contributions was within the ambit of what the court could have ordered under s30A(9), did not bind the bankrupt for a period exceeding the statutory maximum, and the trustees' conduct was not shown to be plainly wrong or perverse; therefore the court will not overturn the trustees' decision under s83 and the application is dismissed with costs.

    RE TAM MEI KAM

    Citation
    RE TAM MEI KAM
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCB3777/2011

    The application was dismissed because it sought relief in respect of a hypothetical situation and was premature and unnecessary given pending maintenance proceedings and the high likelihood the applicant would be discharged before any lump sum maintenance could be ordered; costs were ordered nisi against the applicant.
