Bankruptcy 30 years ago

Just by chance I checked the London Gazette and friends bankruptcy still listed there. AND a new notice for people to claim dividends complete a form and apply to the receiver. Why would this happen now? And a court number.

I don't think things ever get deleted from the Gazette. Is he still on the insolvency register?
As for the new notice, you'll have to ask him.0 -
The bankruptcy was thirty years ago. And he's not been contacted

30 years ago all bankruptcies went through a court.
If he hasn't heard anything, and he's not showing as undischarged on the register then I don't think he has anything to worry about.1 -
It'll likely be because an asset like a PPI claim has been received into the bankruptcy estate. As it's so old the OR will advertise a potential dividend for 28 days to see if anyone claims. The OR's fees were far lower back then so there may *possibly" be a surplus due to your friend.1
