Question juridique clé
Whether the respondents had passive standing under Art. 290 LP as beneficiaries or third parties of the challenged payment
Solution extraite
The downstream recipients were legitimate defendants; the payment was revocable and they had to restore the amount received.
Motifs extraits
Art. 290 LP reaches anyone who benefited directly or indirectly from assets leaving the debtor’s estate. The lawyers were merely conduits and not first acquirers; the final recipients were the contractual beneficiaries of the payment and thus could be sued.
