Petridis & Petridis

In the matter of *Petridis & Petridis*, Mr. Petridis, the applicant husband, sought to intervene in proceedings involving his former spouse, Ms. Petridis, and various companies. The core of the dispute concerned the husband's application to set aside or annul his bankruptcy, and his related, albeit ambiguous, request for orders injuncting the Trustee in Bankruptcy from acting as a vendor in the sale of certain properties. The Honourable Deputy Chief Judge McClelland presided over the proceedings.

The primary legal issue before the court was whether to grant the applicant husband leave to intervene in the proceedings for the limited purpose of making his application concerning the bankruptcy and the sale of properties. The Trustee in Bankruptcy opposed this application for leave.

The court granted the husband leave to intervene, but strictly for the sole purpose of making the specific application filed on 5 March 2021. This leave was not a general intervention in the proceedings. Ultimately, the court dismissed the husband's application in a case filed on 5 March 2021.
