Examination of persons suspected of holding LLP property may be ordered ex parte with notice to the liquidator. An application may be made for examination of LLP officers or persons suspected of holding LLP property, books, papers, or indebtedness, or otherwise able to give information concerning the LLP; such applications may be made ex parte but third-party applicants must notify the Liquidator. The summons must follow the prescribed form and, if made by the Liquidator, be accompanied by a signed statement of facts; if made by others, it must be supported by an affidavit setting out the matters and grounds for examination.
