Secretary of State for Trade and Industry v Vohora and Another: ChD 15 Nov 2007

The directors complained that the disqualification proceedings had been brought out of time. The court had received the papers, but had not processed them within the applicable time limits.
Held: The requirement was that the claim be brought within the limit. That was satisfied by the filing if the papers even if the proceedings were strictly only commenced when the court came later to process them.
