    Supreme Court: Fraudulent conveyance; knowledge of prejudice
    2017-02-08

    In a recent judgment, the Supreme Court ruled that both the debtor and any counterparty performing the legal act have knowledge of prejudice to creditors if, at the time of performing the legal act, the bankruptcy of the debtor and a shortfall in the bankruptcy estate is foreseeable. This judgment confirms the Supreme Court's decision of 22 December 2009 (ECLI:NL:HR:2009:BI8493).

    The position of the right of pledge after bankruptcy on goods that are delivered subject to retention of title
    2017-01-19

    On 3 June 2016, the Supreme Court ruled that a valid right of pledge can be established on goods that are delivered subject to retention of title (of ownership). If the buyer is declared bankrupt, the conditional ownership can become an unconditional ownership if the condition precedent is fulfilled (mostly full payment of the purchase price). Next to the buyer, the pledgee can also fulfil this condition. As a consequence, these goods are not part of the bankrupt estate, so that the pledgee can take recourse against these goods.

    Wanneer verkrijgt een zorgaanbieder een vordering voor verrichte diensten?
    2016-08-09

    Het hof Amsterdam heeft in het voorjaar van 2016 een uitspraak gedaan over het ontstaansmoment van vorderingen van zorgaanbieders op patiënten en/of zorgverzekeraars. Het ontstaansmoment van een vordering is relevant om in geval van een faillissement van de pandgever te kunnen bepalen of een vordering (reeds) bestond – en dus geldig kan zijn verpand – of dat een vordering nog niet bestond – en dus niet geldig kan zijn verpand.

    Wanneer is turboliquidatie mogelijk?
    2016-10-04

    Turboliquidatie is een snelle manier om een vennootschap te liquideren. De algemene vergadering van aandeelhouders van de vennootschap besluit tot ontbinding van de vennootschap, waardoor de vennootschap ophoudt te bestaan. De ontbinding dient vervolgens te worden ingeschreven in het Handelsregister van de Kamer van Koophandel (artikel 2:19 lid 4 BW).

    Bestuurdersaansprakelijkheid in faillissement: het beroep op disculpatie van een individuele bestuurder.
    2016-12-09

    In een uitspraak van de Rechtbank Den Haag van 28 april 2016 wordt één van de (middellijk) bestuurders van bouw- en sloopbedrijf Hildon Bouwservice B.V. (hierna: “Hildon”) veroordeeld om het tekort in de boedel te voldoen. Het beroep op disculpatie van de bestuurder faalt, omdat hij (kort gezegd) op de hoogte was van het handelen van zijn medebestuurder (tevens broer) en onvoldoende maatregelen heeft genomen om (de gevolgen van) de onbehoorlijke taakvervulling af te wenden.

    Collection of enforcement proceeds under an undisclosed right of pledge
    2016-12-19

    The District Court of Oost-Brabant: At the time of collection, if a trustee in bankruptcy has collected enforcement proceeds from receivables pledged under an undisclosed right of pledge over receivables, the pledgee of the undisclosed right of pledge remains entitled to claim such proceeds from the trustee in bankruptcy, provided it has not collected the proceeds in its capacity as representative of the insolvent pledgor. The claim, however, only applies to proceeds which have been paid directly into the liquidation account.

    Na faillietverklaring vervallende rentevorderingen verjaren niet gedurende faillissement
    2016-06-28

    De verjaringstermijn van na faillietverklaring vervallende rentevorderingen neemt pas een aanvang na het eindigen van het faillissement. Dat heeft de Hoge Raad op 24 juni 2016 geoordeeld in het arrest Boele's Scheepswerven II. Schuldeisers hoeven de verjaring van rentevorderingen gedurende een (eerste) faillissement dan ook niet te stuiten.
