DISPUTED DEBT V GOOD DEBT

30 August 2018

Disputed debt

What is the difference between disputed debt and good debt in a statutory demand?

Disputed debt in a statutory demand is when a creditor attempts to claim debt that the debtor claims is not owed to them, therefore they are not insolvent.

A good petitioning debt is when the debt is in a liquidated form - which is both specific and agreed - for immediate or future payment whilst the debtor cannot afford to pay the debt.

A liquidated form is when cash is generated by selling company assets in order to pay off creditors. 

If it is not in a liquidated form, then recovering debt through a statutory demand is not the best route to take.
