JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) THIS is an application for revision which was originally instituted as a second appeal but was
later treated, at the request of the appellant, as an application for revision arising out of
proceedings under the Insolvency Act.
(2.) IT appears that the applicant filed an application under the Provincial Insolvency Act for
adjudging the opposite party an insolvent and the act of insolvency, which was alleged on behalf
of the applicant, was that the opposite party, who was a partner in business with the applicant
had not paid the profits which were due to the applicant on account of the business.
(3.) THE application was resisted on behalf of the opposite party on the ground that such an
application was not maintainable, firstly, because no relationship of creditor and debtor existed
and secondly that the amount claimed was in the nature of unliquidated damages and as such the
application was barred under the provisions of Section 9 (1) (b), Provincial Insolvency Act.;
