Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act

Version of section 98 from 2002-12-31 to 2004-12-14:


Marginal note:Recovering proceeds if reconveyed

  •  (1) Where a person has acquired property of a bankrupt under a transaction that is void or under a voidable transaction that is set aside and has sold, disposed of, realized or collected the property or any part thereof, the money or other proceeds, whether further disposed of or not, shall be deemed the property of the trustee.

  • Marginal note:Trustee may recover

    (2) The trustee may recover the property or the value thereof or the money or proceeds therefrom from the person who acquired it from the bankrupt or from any other person to whom he may have resold, transferred or paid over the proceeds of the property as fully and effectually as the trustee could have recovered the property if it had not been so sold, disposed of, realized or collected.

  • Marginal note:Operation of section

    (3) Notwithstanding subsection (1), where any person to whom the property has been sold or disposed of has paid or given therefor in good faith adequate valuable consideration, he is not subject to the operation of this section but the trustee’s recourse shall be solely against the person entering into the transaction with the bankrupt for recovery of the consideration so paid or given or the value thereof.

  • Marginal note:Trustee subrogated

    (4) Where the consideration payable for or on any sale or resale of the property or any part thereof remains unsatisfied, the trustee is subrogated to the rights of the vendor to compel payment or satisfaction.

  • R.S., c. B-3, s. 76
