Mr Katz sought to appeal a bankruptcy order made at the request of the commissioners, following non-payment of VAT. He claimed that insufficient allowance had been made for money which would be payable to him, and his medical condition.
Held: As a true appeal, he had to show some error of law. That had not been shown, and leave was refused.
