The Hong Kong High Court once again delayed the court hearing of an invitation case in Evergrande, China, and won more time for Evergrande's delayed debt restructuring plan.
According to Bloomberg, the Hong Kong High Court decided on Monday (November 28) to make the Listening of China Evergrande's liquidation after hearing the case until March 20, 2023.Although the postponement of court hearing leaves room for Evergrande, this will also force Evergrande to accelerate the process of formulating the debt restructuring plan because the court needs to see evidence in this area.

Evergrande stated in June that the company will strongly oppose the clearing of liquidation and expect that the invitation will not affect the company's reorganization plan or timetable.Hong Kong judges said in September that Evergrande's temporary creditors group opposed the clearing of liquidation, and they believed that the probability of getting a payment under the restructuring plan was higher than the company's liquidation.
