    Verzet tegen de faillietverklaring door de curator
    2018-07-03

    In 2015 oordeelde de Hoge Raad dat een curator met succes in verzet kan komen tegen een faillissement dat op eigen aangifte van de rechtspersoon is uitgesproken. Er was in dit geval sprake van een (bijna) lege boedel en er bestond geen verwachting dat er gedurende het faillissement nog activa konden worden gegenereerd. De curator zou de afwikkelingskosten van het faillissement daardoor niet vergoed krijgen uit de boedel, maar zou deze kosten zelf moeten dragen.

    Belastingplan 2018: geen schorsende werking meer van verzet tegen dwangbevel
    2017-12-15

    De fiscale wetgever heeft in het kader van het Belastingplan 2018 voorgesteld om artikel 17 lid 2 Invorderingswet 1990 (hierna: “IW 1990”) te laten vervallen. Indien dit voorstel daadwerkelijk wordt ingevoerd, dan zou dit betekenen dat aan het verzet tegen de tenuitvoerlegging van een dwangbevel van de Ontvanger niet langer schorsende werking toekomt. Dit kan grote gevolgen hebben voor uw onderneming.
