Posted - 28 February 2011 : 14:30:12 Hi Ray, the following is an extract from the technical manual used by the OR regarding personal injury claims, which I'm assuming yours is:
31.9.37 Actions that are solely ‘personal’ do not vest
It has long been a principle of bankruptcy law that actions that are solely ‘personal’ (see paragraph 31.9.38) do not vest in the trustee and therefore they remain the property of the bankrupt It was held, in 1841, that, ‘Nothing is more clear than that a right of action for an injury to the property of the bankrupt will pass to his [trustee]; but it is otherwise as to an injury to his personal comfort. [Trustees] of a bankrupt are not to make a profit of a man’s wounded feelings.’. This principle still stands today.
On that basis, the OR(your trustee) shouldn't claim anything concerning a personal injury claim.

If you need help completing SOA's(statement of affairs) or PIQ's(preliminary information questionnaire) if you've been declared bankrupt, or anything else and you're within 30 miles or so of Warrington, then please contact me via my contact details in the expert page for futher details"
