Strelia a assisté un franchiseur dans le cadre d’une procédure introduite contre une caution personnelle – gérant de société – qui souhaitait échapper à ses obligations de caution en invoquant sa faillite personnelle. Selon la Cour de cassation, un dirigeant d’entreprise ne peut cependant pas automatiquement être qualifié d’entreprise et faire aussi facilement aveu de faillite.
Strelia assisted a franchisor in an action brought against a personal surety – a company director – who attempted to escape his obligations by filing for his personal bankruptcy. However, according to the Court of Cassation, a company director cannot automatically be considered as an enterprise and therefore is not capable of filing for bankruptcy.
Strelia stond een franchisegever bij in een procedure tegen een persoonlijke borgsteller – een bedrijfsleider – die zich aan zijn verplichtingen als borg wilde onttrekken door zichzelf failliet te laten verklaren. Echter, volgens het Hof van Cassatie kan een bedrijfsleider niet automatisch als onderneming gekwalificeerd worden en dus niet zomaar zijn faillissement aanvragen.
