1. This is a petition before me for the winding up of a Company known as Sundart (CIL) Engineering Limited. This is actually the Amended Petition, it having been the subject of an application for substitution on 2 May 2001. On that occasion, the original petitioner had reached a settlement with the Company and had asked for a dismissal of the petition. On that occasion, a supporting creditor asked to be substituted as petitioner. I gave leave to that supporting creditor to be substituted as petitioner and I gave the usual directions for the filing of the amended petition and verifying affidavit, and the usual supplemental directions as to affidavits.
2. On 28 May 2001, I was informed by the parties that negotiations were taking place between this petitioner and the Company and I was asked to adjourn the matter to 26 June, that is today. There were no supporting or opposing creditors. It was said that the Company would be making repayment by a cheque which would be presented on 15 June 2001.
3. Today, counsel for the substituted Petitioner informed me that there has been no repayment by the Company. There has been no affidavit from the Company either and it is not represented by counsel before me today.
4. Accordingly, I see no reason why I should not make the usual winding up order.
