Sintesi Omnilex

The Aachen Local Court dismissed G’s insolvency-opening application as inadmissible. The application was accompanied by a certificate concerning the failure of an out-of-court settlement, but the lawyer who issued it had not personally advised the debtor; that advice had been provided by an employee. The court held that § 305(1) no. 1 InsO requires the certifying lawyer personally to conduct the debtor’s advice. The application was therefore inadmissible, and the debtor was ordered to bear the costs.

Massima Omnilex

InsO § 305(1) no. 1; requirements for the certificate documenting failure of an out-of-court settlement. The certificate satisfies the statutory requirements only where the lawyer issuing it has personally advised the debtor. Advice provided instead by an employee of that lawyer is insufficient. A certificate issued in those circumstances does not meet the requirements of § 305(1) no. 1 InsO, rendering the debtor’s insolvency petition inadmissible.
