Bankruptcy proceedings
Bankruptcy means that the company is declared insolvent by the court. It is essential to know that bankruptcy proceedings do not always mean terminating the company. Reorganising the company is also possible (overcoming the payment difficulties), as a result of which the company’s activity carries on.
The main stages of bankruptcy proceedings are the following:
- compiling the bankruptcy application and submitting it to the court;
- the court shall publish a note in the publication Ametlikud Teadaanded regarding the submission of bankruptcy application and appoint a trustee in bankruptcy;
- court’s pre-trial;
- the court examines the bankruptcy application;
- court’s decision on bankruptcy;
- notifying the commercial register about declared bankruptcy.
