[...] Tokyo District Court recognized [...] and dismissed the application for the
commencement of the civil rehabilitation proceedings, and at the same time, issued an order for
provisional administration by which I was appointed the provisional administrator."

Sounds like court ordered.
So the media is wrong again?

The application for civil rehabilitation it's my understanding has been pending for some time now. The court may have recognized, but it doesn't say which party if any was advocating for this recognition. So from a legal verbiage point of view, there's no clear reason that the court wasn't simply recognizing it because of arguments put forth.

That's usually what courts do, right, recognize an argument? By dismissing the application, it was just removing a prior motion that was in conflict with the court's recognition. So Mt. Gox could have easily asked for this at some point in the proceedings, due to changing evaluation...
