    Germany: New tax exemption for debt restructuring gains in Germany
    2017-04-12

    With its judgment of November 28, 2016, the German Supreme Tax Court (Bundesfinanzhof; “BFH”) dismissed the application of the tax administration’s so-called restructuring decree (Sanierungserlass). The restructuring decree allowed, subject to certain conditions, a suspension and abatement of taxes on so-called cancellation-of-debt income (“COD-Income”) otherwise resulting from certain recapitalization measures such as the waiver of debt and “debt-to-equity swaps”.

    Pre-pack toch overgang van onderneming?
    2017-04-12

    Het blijft nog even spannend rondom de pre-pack. De pre-pack is een methode waarbij de ondernemer die zijn faillissement ziet aankomen de rechter verzoekt een beoogd curator aan te stellen om te onderzoeken of een doorstart na het faillissement mogelijk is. Rechtbanken oordelen verschillend over de toelaatbaarheid van het toepassen van de pre-packmethode. Het wetsvoorstel Wet Continuïteit Ondernemingen I (‘WCO I’) moet aan deze onzekerheid een einde maken en de pre-pack een wettelijke basis geven.

    Ontwikkelingen omtrent pre-pack
    2017-04-13

    Introductie

    In geval van een faillissement dat gericht is op liquidatie van een onderneming geldt de richtlijn inzake overgang van onderneming niet. Als de onderneming die failliet is gegaan een doorstart maakt, gaan de werknemers dus niet van rechtswege mee over. De rechtbank Midden-Nederland heeft aan het Hof van Justitie gevraagd of de pre-pack kwalificeert als een faillissementsprocedure in de zin van de richtlijn overgang van ondernemingen. De advocaat-generaal beantwoordt die vraag ontkennend in zijn conclusie.

    Transfer of undertaking despite pre-pack?
    2017-04-13

    Pre-pack continues to be a hotly discussed topic. The term refers to when entrepreneurs who expect to go bankrupt request the courts to appoint a receiver to look into the possibility of a restart following bankruptcy. Courts vary as to their standpoint concerning the acceptability of applying the pre-pack method. The purpose of the proposed Continuity of Businesses Act I (WCO I) is to put an end to such uncertainty and to enshrine pre-pack in law.

    La Cour rappelle qu’il y a des limites au droit à l’oubli
    2017-03-14

    Le cas est suffisamment rare pour être souligné : la justice européenne – celle-là même qui a milité et créé le droit à l’oubli – envoie un signal fort en vue de rappeler que celui-ci n’est pas absolu. Saisie d’une question impliquant les registres publics des personnes morales, elle estime qu’il n’y a en principe pas de droit à l’oubli pour les données à caractère personnel y figurant.
