Town have sought to allay concerns after a petition order was dismissed at the High Court this morning.
HMRC began the proceedings against the club, which ultimately could have led to a winding up order, regarding a tax bill of an undisclosed figure, which Town had settled in March.
The club's name was on a list of companies at the Insolvency and Companies Court today relating to a petition order, an early stage in the process.
At this morning's hearing the barrister for HMRC confirmed to Judge Sebastian Prentis that the debt had been paid in full. He asked for the case to be dismissed, which it was.
Town say the issue had already long been resolved and should never have reached the court.
"We only became aware of today’s court hearing via the media yesterday and we are currently investigating with the authorities why it did get to court as it concerns a debt that was paid - and for which we received acknowledgment of payment - in the middle of March,” a club statement reads.
""This morning’s hearing was for a petition order but was immediately dismissed in court as it concerned a debt that was paid six weeks ago.
""We’d like to make it absolutely clear that no winding up petition was served on the club. There will certainly be no further action and we are very disappointed the matter actually reached the court.”
Town were previously subject to a similar situation relating to a debt to HMRC in February 2016.
