    Supreme Court gives examinership a much-needed boost
    2009-12-15

    Last week the Supreme Court overturned Mr Justice McGovern's recent decision in the Linen Supply of Ireland examinership that the current legislation does not permit the repudiation of leases in an examinership. The case has now been remitted back to the High Court to consider whether, in the specific case before it, the leases ought to be repudiated in order for a scheme of arrangement to be formulated.

    Supreme Court rules examiner can repudiate lease
    2010-03-02

    In a recent decision of the Supreme Court in the Matter of Linen Supply of Ireland Limited (the “Company”) and the Companies (Amendment) Act 1990 (as amended), the Court finally clarified the law in relation to a company’s ability to repudiate and/or disclaim leases during the course of an examinership process. Earlier decisions of the High Court, including quite recently the O’Brien’s Sandwich Bar decision, had created uncertainty in this area.

    Stamp duty alert: stamp duty issues for liquidators and receivers
    2008-09-10

    INTRODUCTION

    Many practitioners may not think of stamp duty as a particular risk when taking on a liquidation or a receivership and there is limited published guidance on the topic. Against a background of an increasing number of business failures including companies operating in property development it is likely that liquidators and receivers will be faced with stamp duty issues on a more frequent basis. The purpose of this article is to identify some areas where practitioners may encounter stamp duty issues.

    Israeli Supreme Court Ruling: Property Buyer Required to Pay Betterment Tax if Seller Is Incapable Due to Insolvency Proceedings
    2018-05-02

    According to a ruling handed down recently by the Israeli Supreme Court, when a real estate asset is sold before the seller enters bankruptcy proceedings, and the seller has not paid the betterment tax, the local council is not obligated to grant the buyer approval for registering the property under his name. Thus, the buyer will be required to pay the betterment tax.

    Parte I: Liquidazione del fondo e responsabilità

    Quando si parla di liquidazione di un fondo di investimento alternativo (“FIA”) immobiliare ci si riferisce, in generale, al procedimento che porta all’estinzione di quel peculiare centro di imputazione di posizioni giuridiche soggettive che è il FIA stesso.

    NPL - Verso un mercato più trasparente grazie all’introduzione del Registro Elettronico delle Procedure
    2017-04-20

    I cd. NPL (non performing loans, letteralmente mutui non performanti) sono, sostanzialmente, crediti per i quali la riscossione è incerta, sia dal punto di vista del rispetto della scadenza originaria che per quanto riguarda l’ammontare del possibile recupero; essi sono anche detti, nel linguaggio bancario, crediti deteriorati.
