Law Firm Users as well as Bankruptcy Office Assignees can file bankruptcy cases on behalf of filing parties.
A bankruptcy application can be commenced at the High Court where the debt owed is S$10,000.00 or more by either of the following:
A Debtor who wishes to be made a bankrupt; or
A Creditor against a debtor.
When a Debtor is deceased, a Creditor can seek an administration order
against the Estate of the deceased Debtor (which is collectively referred
to as “Bankruptcy Applications”). Bankruptcy Applications are commenced
by way of an Originating Summons.
