The adjournment was refused because the applications to annul the 1st bankruptcy and to seek assignment/consent were brought excessively late without satisfactory explanation, thereby frustrating the court's duty to deal with cases expeditiously and causing prejudice; accordingly the adjournment application was dismissed and an order nisi for costs against the appellant was made, while limited further written submissions were permitted.
