Some content of this manual is being considered for archiving. If there is content you use regularly, please email [email protected] to let us know as soon as possible.

If you learn of the judgment debtor’s bankruptcy at any stage of judgment summons or committal proceedings, refer the case to the Insolvency Claims Handling Unit.

If the judgment debtor files an affidavit stating that a bankruptcy order has been made against him or her, the court will suspend execution of a warrant of committal or, if it has already been executed, discharge the judgment debtor from custody and send written notice to you.
