THE OFFICIAL ASSIGNEE v WATERCARE SERVICES LIMITED [2023] NZHC 1061
- Citation
- [2023] NZHC 1061
- Court
- High Court
Because Ms Parker was solvent at the time of adjudication, the Official Assignee discharged the outstanding water and rates obligations, advertised for other creditors with none coming forward, and annulment was plainly in the bankrupt's interests and not prejudicial to creditors, the court granted annulment under s 309(1)(b) and authorised payment of accrued Watercare debts and reasonable remuneration with any surplus returned to Ms Parker.
