The appellant appealed an order requiring him to sell his taxi licence to satisfy an equalization payment, but filed for bankruptcy two days later.
The respondent moved to dismiss the appeal.
The trustee in bankruptcy advised it would not pursue the appeal, and the appellant failed to obtain an order to continue within a reasonable time under Rule 61.13.1.
The Court of Appeal granted the motion and dismissed the appeal, noting the assets were now part of the bankrupt estate.
