 An "ex parte" application is made to court on the day of presentation of the petition for directions in relation to the hearing of the petition and frequently, the appointment of an interim examiner is sought.As an interim examiner has the same powers of certification of expenses as a full examiner, the court will be equally cautious in acceding to the appointment of an interim examiner.Although each situation will vary, one of the primary reasons for seeking the appointment of an interim examiner is to facilitate him commencing his work immediately rather than waiting until after the full hearing.
