This, the inaugural edition of ‘A Practical Guide To Contested Bankruptcy Petitions’ provides detailed and practically focused commentary and guidance in relation to contested bankruptcy petitions. It is aimed at legal practitioners and insolvency practitioners and contains in-depth analysis of matters ranging from locus standi to costs. An entire chapter is devoted to the various (non-exhaustive) ways in which a petition may be disputed, ranging from guarantees to debts in respect of a local authority. Analysis and commentary is also provided on more discrete issues such as jurisdiction, death (including insolvent administration orders) and incapacity, as well as the impact of The Debt Respite Scheme (Breathing Space Moratorium and Mental Health Crisis Moratorium) (England and Wales) Regulations 2020. With practitioners in mind, there are also chapters devoted to procedure and costs as well as coverage of technical points. Analysis, commentary and guidance is given in this book on, inter alia:
- Disputing a bankruptcy petition;
- Insolvent Administration Orders;
- The Debt Respite Scheme (Breathing Space Moratorium and Mental Health Crisis Moratorium) (England and Wales) Regulations 2020;
- Jurisdiction;
- Procedure;
- Costs;
- and Technical Points.
