Smith v Munro

In *Smith v Munro*, the applicant sought a review of a decision to dismiss an application concerning a bankruptcy notice. The respondent creditor sought an order that their costs be taxed and paid from the estate of the respondent debtor.

The court was required to determine whether the bankruptcy notice was valid and, consequently, whether the application for review should be dismissed. The court also considered the appropriate order for costs.

Judge Vasta dismissed the application for review, finding the bankruptcy notice to be valid. The court reasoned that the applicant had failed to demonstrate any grounds for setting aside the notice. Consequently, the court ordered that the creditor's costs be taxed and paid from the estate of the debtor.
