A debtors’ claim against a liquidated local building company’s expected to resume this week.
In their fifth report into Fowler Homes Southern Lakes (FHSL), liquidators Colin Gower and Tim Ward, of BDO Christchurch, say the claim’s been progressed before the Disputes Tribunal, but given it was adjourned to May 12, ‘‘we are not able to provide a further update in relation to this matter’’.
FHSL’s licensee and sole director John Mansfield put the company into voluntary liquidation on March 15, 2019 it came about 24 hours after Mansfield told
Mountain Scene’s sister paper,
Otago Daily Times, he hadn’t liquidated and the ‘‘rumour mill’’ was ‘‘obviously in overdrive’’.
