34. Disqualifications of undischarged bankrupt
(1) Where a debtor is adjudged bankrupt, he shall, subject to this Act, be
disqualified for being elected to or holding or exercising the office of Mayor
or Municipal Councillor.
(2) Such disqualifications shall be removed and shall cease when the
adjudication in bankruptcy is annulled, or when the debtor obtains his discharge with a certificate from the Court to the effect that his bankruptcy
was caused by misfortune without any misconduct on his part.
(3) The Court may grant or withhold such certificate as it thinks fit, but
any refusal of such certificate shall be subject to appeal.
