A quick definition of notour bankruptcy:

Notour bankruptcy is a legal term used in Scottish law to describe the stage of insolvency where a debtor has publicly acknowledged their inability to pay their debts. This acknowledgement is made in a way determined by the law. Notour bankruptcy is usually followed by sequestration, which is when a trustee is appointed to manage the debtor's assets for the benefit of their creditors. The law of notour bankruptcy is mainly based on statutes that determine the circumstances that constitute this status and its consequences.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Notour bankruptcy is a term used in Scots law to refer to the stage of insolvency in which the debtor publicly acknowledges their inability to pay their debts under the statute. This stage is usually followed by sequestration, which is notorious insolvency coupled with the appointment of a trustee for creditors.

Example: When a person in Scotland owes a lot of money to creditors and cannot pay it back, they may declare notour bankruptcy. This means that they have publicly acknowledged their insolvency and are unable to pay their debts. The law then appoints a trustee to manage their assets and distribute them among the creditors.

Explanation: The example illustrates how notour bankruptcy works in Scotland. When a person is unable to pay their debts, they publicly acknowledge their insolvency, and the law appoints a trustee to manage their assets. This helps to ensure that the creditors receive some of the money owed to them, and the debtor can start afresh without the burden of debt.
