Mr Justice Norris :
(a) The Bankrupt bears no personal responsibility for the delay:(b) The solicitor himself was not slapdash or careless but made a mistake in the course of his research in a standard work:
(c) The period of delay is short, the deficiencies were immediately corrected, and an application for an extension of time promptly made:
(d) There has been no procedural inconvenience:
(e) The delay has occasioned the Trustees no apparent prejudice, and although they have written to the court in connection with this appeal they have not drawn attention to any prejudice.
Mr Justice Norris .29 July 2010
