Yu Energy Retail Limited presented a winding-up petition against Sans Patrie Ltd at the High Court on 5 May 2026, claiming to be a creditor of the Nottingham restaurant company.
A winding-up petition is a court filing that asks the court to place a company into compulsory liquidation. The court must still make a winding-up order at a hearing before any such outcome takes effect. That hearing is listed before the Insolvency and Companies List (ChD), the specialist insolvency list within the Chancery Division of the High Court, at the Rolls Building, Fetter Lane, London, on 24 June 2026 at 10:30 am.
The petition carries case number CR-2026-003448.
The company
Sans Patrie Ltd is registered at 2-6 Alfreton Road, Nottingham, NG7 3NG, and was incorporated on 18 April 2019. Its SIC code 56101 describes licensed restaurants. The most recent filed accounts covered the period to 28 February 2023 and were prepared as micro-entity accounts.
The directors at the time of the notice were Ross Considine and Nicholas Stephen Parker, both appointed on 18 April 2019. Considine also acts as company secretary.
The petitioner
Yu Energy Retail Limited is registered at CPK House, 2 Horizon Place, Nottingham Business Park, Mellors Way, Nottingham, NG8 6PY. Its legal team's postal address is The Energy Centre, 2 Northgate Street, Leicester, LE3 5BZ.
The petition was published in the London Gazette on 26 May 2026.
What happens next
Anyone wishing to appear at the hearing, whether to support or oppose the petition, must give notice of that intention by 16:00 on 23 June 2026, in accordance with rule 7.14 of the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 2016. Notice should be given to the petitioner's legal team at the Leicester address.
No charges are registered against Sans Patrie Ltd at Companies House, and no administrators have been appointed. The company's status remains active pending the outcome of the hearing.
Common questions
What does a winding-up petition mean for Sans Patrie Limited?
A petition is a court filing, not a court order. Sans Patrie Limited is not yet in liquidation. The court will consider the petition at the date listed in the notice; until then, the company continues to trade, but its bank may freeze accounts and counterparties may stop extending credit. The court can dismiss the petition, adjourn it, or grant a winding-up order.
Are you owed money by Sans Patrie Limited?
You are not yet a creditor in a liquidation; the company is still trading. If you support the petition, you may file a notice of support at the court named in the notice. If the petition is granted, you become an unsecured creditor in the resulting compulsory liquidation and the Official Receiver will invite you to submit a proof of debt.
Did you work at Sans Patrie Limited?
A petition does not by itself terminate your employment. Wages and holiday pay continue to accrue until the company stops paying you or is wound up. Watch the bank position closely; if accounts are frozen, payroll will be the first thing to fail. If the petition is granted, statutory redundancy and notice claims become payable from the Redundancy Payments Service.
Are you a director of Sans Patrie Limited?
Once a petition is filed, the company's directors have a heightened duty to consider the interests of creditors. Continuing to trade where there is no reasonable prospect of avoiding insolvent liquidation can expose directors to personal liability for wrongful trading under Section 214 of the Insolvency Act 1986. Specialist insolvency advice should be taken immediately.
