Applying the Court of Appeal authority in Hong Leong Bank v Ong Moon Huat, the court held that a judgment creditor may obtain leave to commence bankruptcy proceedings either upon issuance of the bankruptcy notice or up to filing of the creditor's petition; consequently the appellant's contention that failure to obtain leave prior to issuance was fatal was rejected and the appeal was dismissed.
