    Can directors’ liability still cause a turboliquidated company to declare bankruptcy?
    2025-01-14

    Introduction

    Dissolution of a company can take place in several ways in the Netherlands. One of these options is turboliquidation, a procedure described in Article 2:19 paragraph 4 of the Dutch Civil Code (BW). The essence of this is that at the time of the dissolution decision, there must no longer be any assets present in the company.

    Dutch Supreme Court provides clarity on aspects of the WHOA in Royal IHC judgment
    2024-11-01

    On 25 October 2024, the Dutch Supreme Court ruled in a ground-breaking judgment in Royal IHC that a WHOA plan may change creditors’ and shareholders’ rights but cannot impose more onerous obligations. More specifically, the lenders cannot be compelled to provide new financing or to accept new terms and still provide new funds under previously committed credit facilities (i.e., undrawn commitments).

    Verlaagd griffierecht voor onvermogende rechtspersonen
    2024-08-12

    Wanneer een juridisch geschil wordt voorgelegd aan de rechter, zijn er griffierechten verschuldigd. Griffierecht is de vergoeding die door de gerechtelijke instantie wordt geheven voor het in behandeling nemen van de zaak. De hoogte van deze kosten hangt bijvoorbeeld af van de aard van de zaak, het inkomen van een rechtszoekende, en of een natuurlijk persoon of rechtspersoon procedeert. Onder omstandigheden kan een (rechts)persoon in aanmerking komen voor het verlaagd griffierecht voor onvermogenden.

    2024-08-12

    When a legal dispute is brought to court, court fees are payable. Court fee is the fee levied by the judicial authority for handling the case. The amount of these fees depends, for example, on the nature of the case, a litigant’s income, and whether a natural person or legal entity is litigating. Under these circumstances, a (legal) person may qualify for the reduced court fee for insolvent persons.
