COURT OF BAIKRUPTCY.—Nov. 23.
(Wan Mr. Cam Wooer GOODNIZIL)
IN NZ CAPTAIN —APPLICATION POI lILNANN.
This was an adjourned application for raceme from cus-
tody in the matter of George Jame Buralem, described ea
• gentleman, of Great .fame.-attest, Bedford-row. The
eau was recently before the court, on a quad= arising
out a deed of amassment which had been stunted by
Captain Borslem. He has since been =de bankrupt on
hie own petition.
Mr. sargood supported ; Mr. Bagley and Mr. E. Reed
Ve.diegistrar having pointed out to the court that the
" three days' statement," which ouOt to accompany wiry
bankrupt's petition, had not been Med, though the petition
had been presented on the 17th,
His Honour said the only *worse was to dismiss the
petiLion
Mr. Sergood, on behalf of the bankrupt, intimated that
a fresh petition would be filed.
Mr. Bagley saidthis was the third time that the creditors
had been brought here within the last fortnight ; and he
asked that the bankrupt should not be allowed to file
another petition without giving security for the costs of the
creditors.
His Honour said the petition being dismimed, the man
was no longer a bankrupt, and be could make no ceder in
th. case. If the creditors wished it they might bare a role
calling on him to show cause why he should not pay the
costs of the creditors on this occasion.
Mr. Reed also claimed costa on behalf of the creditors he
represented.
Him Honour said if it could be shown that debtors brought
their creditors here needlessly end vexatiously, he should be
quite disposed to gin; oasts against them ; but be feared
such an order would be of very little use in this an, where
the debtor was • pauper. Be. whilo nihil fit. However,
they might take • rule.
