s 137Order for instalments

(1)

Any madin against whom a judgment has been or is about to be given may apply to the Court —

(a)

for leave to pay the judgment debt by instalments; or

(b)

if an order for payment by instalments has been made, for leave to pay by reduced instalments, and the Court may, after hearing the parties, make such order as it thinks just.

(2)

Where any such instalment is more than one month in arrears, such order is deemed to be dispensed with and the judgment da’in may apply for execution of the whole amount in arrears due on the judgment, but the judgment madin may apply for another order.

(3)

Any party may, if an order for payment by instalments has been made, apply that the order be dispensed with, or that the instalments be increased or decreased, and the Court after hearing the parties may make such order as it thinks just.
