Equitable Treatment

Preference
Preference occurs when an insolvent debtor favours a particular creditor, such as by paying one creditor in full, to the disadvantage of other creditors. If the debtor becomes bankrupt or goes into insolvent liquidation, the court can order restoration to ensure equitable treatment among all creditors.
