BANKRUPTCY AMENDMENT ACT (NORTHERN IRELAND) 1929 - SECT 10



10. The bankruptcy of a debtor, whether it takes place on the debtor's own
petition or upon that of a creditor or creditors, shall be deemed to have
relation back to, and to commence at, the time of the act of bankruptcy being
committed on which an adjudication of bankruptcy is made against him, or if
the bankrupt is proved to have committed more acts of bankruptcy than one, to
have relation back to, and to commence at, the time of the first of the acts
of bankruptcy proved to have been committed by the bankrupt within six months
next preceding the date of the filing of the bankruptcy petition; but no
bankruptcy petition or adjudication shall be rendered invalid by reason of any
act of bankruptcy anterior to the debt of the petitioning creditor.
