Begbies Traynor partner Nick Hood said there had been "no word" from White Productions, with the petition set to be heard at the High Court on 8 September, after PrintWeek had gone to press.

Begbies Traynor, administrator of the Perivan Group, issued the winding-up petition to recover "a significant five-figure sum still outstanding from the sale of the assets of Perivan".

The firm, then under the name of Perivan White Dove, was acquired from its administrators by the Buzwell Group under the name of Skyrooks.

ExecutivesOnline had already filed winding-up petitions against the Buzwell Group and Buzwell Management, which were staved off at the 11th hour.

However, managing director Norrie Johnston said petitions against Buzwell subsidiaries SMS and Gridloc had both been adjourned, with both parties now due back in court on 22 September.
