Nulidad de un despido colectivo realizado en la sucursal española de una sociedad sometida a un procedimiento de insolvencia alemán
Sentencia de la Sala de lo Social de la Audiencia Nacional de 30 de abril de 2018
Collective layoff voided at Spanish branch of a company subject to German insolvency proceedings
Judgment by the National Appellate Court (Labor Chamber) on April 30, 2018
An insolvency order by a German court on a company does not in itself authorize that company to carry out a collective layoff at its Spanish branch. The German company should have petitioned for a local insolvency proceeding on its Spanish branch to obtain authorization from the judge hearing the Spanish insolvency proceeding to conduct the collective layoff at its branch.
In March 2018, the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) published a consultation on proposed reforms to the UK’s insolvency and corporate governance landscape. That consultation included certain significant proposals, including extending liability to the directors of holding companies that sell insolvent subsidiaries.

Not every sale of a unit of production in an insolvency proceeding is free of VAT
Central Economic-Administrative Tribunal decision of March 21, 2018
La crisis económica en la que se vio sumida España desde el año 2007, y de la que poco a poco el país se viene sobreponiendo, ha espoleado a los 'players' del mercado de reestructuraciones para salir de su zona de confort e introducirse en caminos hasta ahora apenas transitados en nuestro país.
Garrigues detectó que no existía una directriz clara que permitiera a los notarios expedir a favor de los fondos adquirentes de los créditos fallidos otra copia de la escritura de hipoteca “con efectos ejecutivos”.
The High Court has found that two directors and one former director of a company were in breach of their duties by causing the company to implement a reorganisation and a capital reduction when they were aware there was a risk it would lose its source of income.
In addition, the statutory statement of solvency supporting the capital reduction was invalid because the director had not formed the opinion set out in it. As a result, the capital reduction and a subsequent dividend were unlawful, and the directors were liable to repay the dividend.
