1A court-appointed receiver bears the onus of justifying both the reasonableness and prudence of the tasks undertaken and the reasonableness of the remuneration claimed, consistent with the principles summarised in Re Say Enterprises Pty Ltd [2018] NSWSC 396 and adopted in Sandra May Banning as administratrix of the estate of Martin Banning v Graeme Trevor Lean (in his capacity as Receiver) [No 3] [2019] WASCA 30.
2Sufficiently detailed timesheets specifying work undertaken, the personnel involved and their hourly rates (conforming to rates fixed in the receivership orders) constitute adequate evidence to support a receiver's remuneration application under RSC O 51 r 4.
