Law Society of England and Wales and others v Shah and others [2007] EWHC 2841 (Ch)
“It was possible for a third party, who had a ‘bankruptcy debt’, to claim payment from the debtor’s insurer under the Third Parties (Rights Against Insurers) Act 1930 after the debtor had been made bankrupt and discharged. In order to do so it was necessary to establish the liability of the debtor which could be achieved by a judicial determination of the third party’s right to prove the debt in the debtor’s bankruptcy.”
