The Court of Appeal refuses an application for leave to review its previous judgment regarding the interpretation of a bankruptcy statute on constitutional grounds. The applicant contended that the court's interpretation, which maintained the vesting of an unrealised estate in the Official Assignee post-bankruptcy discharge, was incorrect. The court found no exceptional circumstances or errors that would justify reopening the decision, affirming that the estate remains with the Official Assignee for the benefit of creditors, except for the family home under specific conditions. The original decision of the Court of Appeal, which dismissed the appeal, remains final and conclusive.
