A statutory demand based solely on an unpaid lump sum under a matrimonial order that is not provable in bankruptcy cannot validly support a provable bankruptcy debt in circumstances where there is no other supporting creditor or other provable debt; the court will not in practice make a bankruptcy order on that basis, and the respondent must pay the applicant's costs.
