1.This petition for winding up was presented against Multi-Luck Development Limited (“the Company”) by Hi-Watt International Enterprises Limited, based on a judgment debt of $1,256,603.59 in High Court Action No. 4305 of 2001 obtained on 22 February 2006.

2.The petition first came before the court in July 2006 and it was adjourned pending the outcome of the Company’s application to the Court of Appeal for leave to appeal against the judgment out of time.  That application was dismissed by the Court of Appeal on 11 October 2006.  The Company has indicated by its solicitors that it will no longer oppose the petition.  I therefore make an order to wind up the Company.  The petitioner’s costs are to be paid out of the assets of the Company.
