|
138. Where a company is being wound up voluntarily, the liquidators or any contributory of the company may apply to the Court in England, Ireland, or Scotland, or to the Lord Ordinary on the Bills in Scotland in time of vacation, to determine any question arising in the matter of such winding-up, or to exercise, as respects the enforcing of calls, or in respect of any other matter, all or any of the powers which the Court might exercise if the company were being wound up by the Court; and the Court or Lord Ordinary in the case aforesaid, if satisfied that the determination of such question, or the required exercise of power, will be just and beneficial, may accede, wholly or partially, to such application, on such terms and subject to such conditions as the Court thinks fit, or it may make such other order, interlocutor, or decree on such application, as the Court thinks just.
