Apology

globemailAn article entitled "When bankruptcy trustees ‘run amok,’ " published on page B6 of the June 24, 2009, edition of The Globe and Mail, contained a statement that judicial officials have ruled that Mr. Edward White, who is a licensed trustee in bankruptcy, "lied to regulators." That is incorrect. A statement to that effect was made by a Registrar in Bankruptcy. No other judicial official has made any such statement. The Registrar’s statement was specifically disapproved by Justice Ruth E. Mesbur of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice on Mr. White’s appeal of the Registrar’s decision. Justice Mesbur also reversed the decision of the Registrar on several other issues. Her decision is under appeal by Mr. Robert Murphy, who was quoted at length in our June 24 article. The Globe and Mail regrets its error and apologizes to Mr. White. Link
