Court rejects woman's application to have her estranged husband's financial affairs investigated

A wife's application to have her estranged husband's financial affairs investigated by the official that oversaw his bankruptcy has been dismissed by the High Court, writes Ann O'Loughlin.

Ms Justice Caroline Costello today cleared the way for the husband to exit bankruptcy after she found that an order directing the official in charge of the husband's bankruptcy, the Official Assignee Chris Lehane, to further investigate the matter was not warranted.
