- High Court
The application for inspection under s256 was dismissed because the applicant failed to establish a specific persuasive or concrete reason to inspect; the liquidator's decisions were within acceptable professional judgment supported by legal advice and evidence, and the request was overly broad and risked being a fishing expedition that would needlessly prolong the liquidation and harm creditors.
