1. This is a bankruptcy petition based on an unpaid judgment debt in the amount of $301,600. The judgment in default of defence was obtained on 25 January 1999. It would appear that prior to that date, the debtor had applied for legal aid. Legal aid was refused on 24 February 1999. It is not apparent why those proceedings were not stayed since a legal aid application was pending. Be that as it may, it is quite clear that the debtor had notice of the proceedings.
