Questão jurídica principal
Whether the respondent's counsel remained authorized after the respondent's insolvency proceedings began
Decisão extraída
The appellate court could, without arbitrariness, treat the counsel as authorized again from 11 February 2003 and regard earlier post-insolvency acts as ratified.
Fundamentação extraída
The insolvency administrator informed counsel that he authorized X. to continue the dispute; this confirmed the pre-existing mandate and operated as ratification of prior procedural acts.
