Details

Butterworths Hong Kong Bankruptcy Law Handbook is a detailed work of reference on the Bankruptcy Ordinance (Cap 6), the major piece of legislation governing bankruptcy law and practice in Hong Kong.

This Handbook reproduces the text of the Ordinance as currently in force with details on amendments and repeals. It also provides section-by-section annotations and examines significant judicial decisions and rules of the court, alongside with definitions of words and phrases, discussions on practical and contentious issues, and other authoritative materials.

This series has been cited with authority in over a hundred court cases in the Hong Kong Court of First Instance, the Court of Appeal and the Court of Final Appeal. This Handbook is an invaluable source of information for practitioners, legal advisers, students and anyone interested in the laws governing bankruptcy law and practice in Hong Kong.

This updated edition presents the latest and consolidated text of the Bankruptcy Ordinance in a perspicuous format, accompanied by section-by-section annotations. They encompass references to judicial pronouncements that elucidate the interpretation of each section, pertinent rules of court, definitions of lexical constructs and phraseology, and a discourse on the practical aspects of application and contentious issues. The Hong Kong and UK jurisprudence, related statutory instruments, and other authoritative materials are identified and examined in granular detail. All annotations are cross-referenced with detailed tables of cases and legislation. Furthermore, this updated AOHK reproduces the entirety of the subsidiary legislation to the Ordinance currently in force.
