Question juridique clé
Whether the third party's claim to the seized assets was time-barred for tardiness
Solution extraite
The claim was not time-barred; it was filed within a brief and appropriate time after the seizure became final.
Motifs extraits
Swiss debt enforcement law sets no fixed deadline for a revendication; the claim may be made until distribution unless the third party delays maliciously or grossly negligently. Here the bank had indicated it would assert its rights once the seizure was final, and it filed its claim less than three weeks after notice of finality.
