(2)Subject to those provisions, the court may make a bankruptcy order on any such petition.
(1)A bankruptcy petition shall not be presented to the court under section 264(1)(a) or (b) unless the debtor—
(a)is domiciled in England and Wales,
(b)is personally present in England and Wales on the day on which the petition is presented, or

(2)A bankruptcy petition shall not be withdrawn without the leave of the court.
(3)The court has a general power, if it appears to it appropriate to do so on the grounds that there has been a contravention of the rules or for any other reason, to dismiss a bankruptcy petition or to stay proceedings on such a petition; and, where it stays proceedings on a petition, it may do so on such terms and conditions as it thinks fit.
