Wallace v Wallace: ChD 25 Sep 2019

‘The present Application raises an interesting question about the scope of section 236 of the Insolvency Act 1986 (‘IA’). This has been described as the question whether the section has extraterritorial effect. More particularly, the question is whether an Order may be made under the section directed to a Respondent resident abroad, in this case in the Republic of Ireland. ‘
