Lunatics
Where it appears to the court that any debtor or creditor or other person who may be
affected by any proceeding under the Ordinance or rules is a lunatic not so found by
inquisition (hereinafter called
the
lunatic
),
the court may appoint such person as it may think fit to appear for, represent or act for
and in the name of the lunatic, either generally or in and for the purpose of any particular
application or proceeding or the exercise of any particular rights or powers which under the
Ordinance and rules the lunatic might have exercised if he had been of sound mind. The
appointment may be made by the court either on an application made as hereinafter mentioned
or, if the court thinks fit so to do, without any previous application.
