    HCB244/2014

    Petition dismissed because the petitioner failed to include and thus could not rely on the Guarantee in the statutory demand and did not adequately set out or prove the bases of the claimed debt; there existed a bona fide triable dispute as to liability to repay the sign-on fee given alleged pre-contractual representations and inconsistencies between conduct and written terms, so bankruptcy summary jurisdiction could not be exercised.
