If a debtor objects to a final charging order, the matter is transferred to the debtor's home court for a hearing.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. It goes to the High Court.
• D. The creditor may proceed to final order regardless.

Answer: (A)

When a debtor objects to a final charging order, the process is to transfer the matter to the debtor’s home court for a hearing. This ensures the objection is heard in the debtor’s local court, with proper jurisdiction and convenient access for the debtor to present evidence and arguments. The hearing in the home court decides whether to uphold, amend, or discharge the charging order, rather than forcing the final order through without addressing the objection. Going to the High Court is not the standard path for this objection, and the creditor cannot simply proceed to a final order if there’s a live objection.
