Overview of this submission
In the course of dispute resolution, a creditor may be confronted with a situation where the corporate debtor is unable to repay its debts. In this case, can the creditor hold the shareholders of the company liable as well? This still depends on whether there is any contractual or legal basis for holding the shareholders liable.
在争议解决过程中,债权人可能会面临一些公司法人债务人无法偿还债务的情形。在此情况下,债权人是否可以要求该公司股东一并承担责任呢?这还是要看要求股东承担责任有没有任何合同的依据或法律的依据。
从合同方面来看,这主要看双方之间的约定,如在合同签署时是否有一并要求股东提供担保或股东是否也是合同的一方,如无相关的约定,则只能看法律方面的依据了。
从法律方面来看,这主要看两个情形,一,如果该公司股东尚未出资完成的话,债权人是否可以要求该股东针对未出资部分承担责任;二,是否存在可以否认公司人格的情形。
一、要求未出资完成的股东承担部分责任
根据《最高人民法院关于适用《中华人民共和国公司法》若干问题的规定(二)》(下称“司法解释二”)第二十二条、《最高人民法院关于适用《中华人民共和国公司法》若干问题的规定(三)》(下称“司法解释三”)第十三条及第十四条,以及《企业破产法》第三十五条的规定,在以下几种情形下,债权人可以请求该股东在其未出资本息范围内对公司债务不能清偿的部分承担连带清偿责任或补充赔偿责任:
(1) 公司解散或破产清算时股东尚未缴纳出资(包括已到期的和未到期的);
(2) 股东未履行或未全面履行出资义务;
(3) 股东抽逃出资的(针对抽逃出资本息部分)。

It is often said that failure is an essential step of learning. Business failure is an inherent process of economic activity so much so that it is estimated that some 200,000 firms in the European Union go bankrupt annually in the European Union. Around half of new operations fail to get through the first five years, and bankruptcies usually account for 15% of such failures.
