Questão jurídica principal
Whether the cantonal supervisory authority could suspend the debt-enforcement complaint until the pending debt-release action was finally decided.
Decisão extraída
No. The suspension interfered with the federally regulated course of debt enforcement and could not be based on cantonal procedural law.
Fundamentação extraída
The Federal Debt Enforcement and Bankruptcy Act determines when enforcement may continue, when bankruptcy may be requested, and when postponement is allowed. A debt-release action with a request for restoration of time does not justify a cantonal suspension of the complaint proceedings beyond what federal law permits, especially after service of the bankruptcy warning.
