I have received a bankruptcy notice, what is it?

A bankruptcy notice is where a person or organisation (the creditor), is alleging by way of demand, that you (the debtor) owes them money. Effectively, the creditor is seeking to declare you bankrupt if you do not repay the debt or comply with the notice.

A bankruptcy notice is usually issued where a creditor has obtained a court judgement or where the judgement made against a debtor is $10,000 or more.
