Section 315
Power of Court to stay or dismiss proceedings on bankruptcy application
(1)
The Court may at any time, for sufficient reason, make an order staying the proceedings on a bankruptcy application, either altogether or for a limited time, on such terms and conditions as the Court thinks just.
(2)
Without affecting subsection (1), where it appears to the Court that the person making a bankruptcy application has contravened any of the provisions of this Act or any rules in relation to proceedings on a bankruptcy application, the Court may, in its discretion, dismiss the application instead of staying any proceedings on the application under that subsection.
