An administration order in the county court (CCAO) enables a judgment debtor to come to a formal agreement with creditors regarding settlement of debts due to them.
The court notifies all listed creditors of the forthcoming administration order hearing. This should not be confused with a Company Administration Order under the Insolvency Act 1986 (DMBM656190).
Notification of CCAO hearing received
If you receive notice of a CCAO hearing from the county court
suspend your distraint action (advising the auctioneer, if appropriate) and
await the outcome of the hearing.
Administration order made
If the court makes an administration order
withdraw your distraint
treat the distraint costs as irrecoverable and
recalculate the interest to the date of the CCAO.
Administration order not made
If the court does not make an administration order resume your distraint action
