- Court
- High Court
The Court granted recognition because the English High Court bankruptcy proceeding fell within the Act's definition of a foreign proceeding, the applicants were foreign representatives, the Article 15 evidential requirements were satisfied (or acceptable evidence provided), the Article 17 criteria were met, and any procedural non‑compliance with High Court Rules was excused under r 1.5 as it was in the interests of justice; the respondent's informal email did not preclude the order.
