The 1st and 2nd Summonses are dismissed: the ORPL is barred by res judicata/issue estoppel and the Henderson v Henderson abuse doctrine from re‑litigating the amount of liquidation expenses after the Court finally determined the Stay Summons and sealed the Conditional Order; the Court was functus officio once the order was sealed and, by the time of the 2nd Summons, lacked jurisdiction as the winding up had ended; costs awarded against the Official Receiver on an indemnity basis.
