    De curator als overtreder
    2015-04-13

    Een failliet bedrijf kan aanlopen tegen handhavingsacties van bestuursorganen. Hierbij kan bijvoorbeeld worden gedacht aan verontreiniging van gronden onder een industrieel bedrijf, waartegen het bestuursorgaan optreedt door oplegging van lasten met sanering van de gronden als doel. Het bestuursorgaan komt dan de curator als beheerder van de boedel tegen. Kunnen bestuursorganen die bevoegd zijn om tegen bepaalde overtredingen op te treden nu de curator aanspreken tot naleving van de wettelijke verplichtingen ten aanzien van de milieuverontreiniging die voorheen op de onderneming rustten?

    The Court of Appeal in The Hague: the bank did not obtain a right of pledge on moveable assets subject to a retention of title (eigendomsvoorbehoud) because the pledgor went bankrupt prior to satisfaction of its obligation to pay the purchase price for those assets
    2015-04-30

    In its judgment dated 2 September 2014, the Court of Appeal in The Hague ruled that moveable assets obtained subject to a retention of title (eigendomsvoorbehoud) should be considered future assets, and that ownership of such assets will be acquired after satisfaction of the relevant condition precedent (typically, full payment of the purchase price). A right of pledge over future assets created in advance will not be valid if the pledgor goes bankrupt before acquiring ownership of such assets.

    Update on Dutch partnerships
    2015-06-05

    Update on Dutch partnerships Willemijn Punt The Dutch Supreme Court recently delivered two important and interesting judgments in the matter of partnerships. The first judgment relates to the consequences of bankruptcy of a general partnership or a limited partnership for its partners. The second judgment pertains to a matter that has kept opinions in case law and legal literature divided for a long time, namely whether or not an acceding partner is liable for debts of the partnership going back to a moment in time prior to his or her accession.

    2014-08-14

    Today, the draft bill on the continuity of companies II (Wet continuïteit ondernemingen II) went into public consultation.
