A repeated Section 94 application by a personal guarantor was held not maintainable after an earlier fresh petition had already been dismissed on merits as time-barred. The tribunal treated the later filing as an identical attempt, noting suppression of the intervening dismissal and a pattern of repeated petitions aimed at securing interim moratorium and delaying recovery. It also rejected the argument that limitation began only from the possession notice, because a separate demand notice had already been issued to the guarantor earlier; the limitation finding based on that earlier notice was upheld. On these facts, the subsequent petition was held barred by res judicata, the abuse of process was found serious, and costs were imposed.
