A winding-up petition against Leyton Orient has been dismissed at a High Court hearing in London.
Orient owed money to four creditors on the petition, having resolved unpaid taxes with HM Revenue & Customs.
Owner Francesco Becchetti was given until Monday to pay off debts or sell the relegated League Two club following a previous High Court hearing in March.
Those creditors on the petition have been paid, although it is understood other creditors remain.
There is no indication as to how many other creditors there are, but they did not support the winding-up petition.
