Chapter IV Administration by Trustee

Supplemental

334 Stay of distribution in case of second bankruptcy. C1

1

This section and the next apply where a bankruptcy order is made against an undischarged bankrupt; and in both sections—

a

“the later bankruptcy” means the bankruptcy arising from that order,

b

“the earlier bankruptcy” means the bankruptcy (or, as the case may be, most recent bankruptcy) from which the bankrupt has not been discharged at the commencement of the later bankruptcy, and

c

“the existing trustee” means the trustee (if any) of the bankrupt’s estate for the purposes of the earlier bankruptcy.

2

Where the existing trustee has been given the prescribed notice of the presentation of the petition of the later bankruptcy, any distribution or other disposition by him of anything to which the next subsection applies, if made after the giving of the notice, is void except to the extent that it was made with the consent of the court or is or was subsequently ratified by the court.

This is without prejudice to section 284 (restrictions on dispositions of property following bankruptcy order).

3

This subsection applies to—

a

any property which is vested in the existing trustee under section 307(3) (after-acquired property);

b

any money paid to the existing trustee in pursuance of an income payments order under section 310; and

c

any property or money, which is, or in the hands of the existing trustee represents, the proceeds of sale or application of property or money falling within paragraph (a) or (b) of this subsection.
