1. Research purposes

The purpose of the insolvency proceedings, governed by Article 2 of the Insolvency Code,

is to cover the debtor’s obligations, i.e. recovery of debts by creditors. Under such circumstances,

the topic has a real importance, the legal environment needing a study that treats the insolvency

proceedings exclusively from the creditor’s point of view, taking into account only the interests

of creditors who are at the same time beneficiaries and losers of procedure.

It is necessary to underline that the last 100 years did not seem to have changed the

perception of the insolvency proceedings. In the present we witness a lot of changes in the

regulations, i.e. the entering into force of the new Civil Code, the new Code of civil procedure

and of the new Law No 85/2014. These new regulations amended both the procedure, as well as

the substantive law.

These changes, which also affect the insolvency procedure, are dealt with in the present

study. Thus, the new institutions covered in the new Code civil (trust, managing someone else's

property, impossibility to alienate and immunity of enforcement, separation of estates, new

additions to be made to the securities regime, etc.) which are incidence in the insolvency

proceedings, in particular in the matter of securities, are also analysed.

The new Civil Procedure Code brings substantial changes that will be implemented in the

insolvency procedure. Thus, our scientific approach based on the need for conciliation between

the special regulation (Law no. 85/2014) and the legislative changes introduced by the new Code

of Civil Procedure, is fully justified.

2. Object of research

Our research is spanned over seven chapters, each with a special significance and a clearly

defined role regarding the possibility of creditors to recover debts through the insolvency

proceedings, starts at dealing with the application for opening the insolvency proceedings and

ends with the closure procedure.

2.1. The first chapter deals with the initiation of an insolvency procedure, by creditors,

being analysed the conditions under which such a claim it may be filed. I have also analysed the

role that the insolvency claim may have against the debtor, as a pressure instrument and the ways

by which the debtor may be determined to pay his debts prior to the initiation of the insolvency

proceedings. I analysed in this section the creditor's entitlement to make a request of the opening

of proceedings insolvency, namely exercise this right beyond its natural limits.

Voluntary requesting the opening of insolvency proceedings may become an obstacle in

front of the creditor’s claims to recover the debts. This because of the suspensory effect it has on

all categories of claims against the debtor (extra-judicial procedures, enforcements, directed

against debtor's assets). In these cases the opposition to the initiation of the insolvency procedure

represents the sole remedy that can be found by the creditors in order to avoid the situations

where voluntary opening the insolvency proceedings is the outcome of an abuse of law,

committed by the debtor, in an attempt to circumvent the payment of debts.

In this context I have shown that the application of the opening of insolvency

proceedings plays a dual role in the possibility of recovery of debs through the insolvency

procedure. Whether it's the debtor's determination to pay his debts willingly (when is this

possible), in order to avoid the adverse impact caused by the opening of proceedings, whether the

insolvency procedure is opened, its purpose is the same, namely the recovery of debt.

Page 14: Recuperarea creanţelor prin procedura insolvenţei · Fulfil the terms under art. 133 of the Insolvency Code regarding the legality §2. Fulfil the terms under art. 133 of the Insolvency

Whereas the goal of opening the insolvency proceedings should not be opposite to that of

the insolvency proceedings (cover the debts in genere, thus a special collective enforcement

procedure), the creditor filing the insolvency claim can’t hope of getting an enforceable title, but

open a collective enforcement procedure through witch all creditors can try to recover their debts.

Causa proxima to request for the opening of insolvency proceedings is to satisfy a general

interest (of all the creditors), by surrendering the control of ones business to the creditors and the

syndic judge, in order to cover its debts (Article 2 of the Insolvency Code). Causa remota of

creditors entitled to file for the opening of the insolvency proceedings may be represented either

by a desire to cover their debts, either by the desire to take over the debtor’s business.

It follows therefore that the application for the opening of insolvency proceedings has a

special character, a mixed one. It is different from that of an application for general lawsuit

against ones debtor because it combines the general interest of all creditors with the personal

interest of the creditor which files the request.

2.2. Chapter two deals with the creditors securities in the insolvency procedure. This

need – to secure the debts – was born of the uncertainty perceived by creditors, resulting from the

general risk of non-payment and the competition between unsecured creditors. Of course, this

protection does not guarantee the success of enforcement obligations but surely increases the

chances of debt recovery.

Article 5 Paragraph 15 of the Insolvency Code defines the secured debs as those claims

which are accompanied by a privilege and/or a right of mortgages and/or similar rights, in

accordance with Article 2.347 of the Civil Code, and/or a right of pledge on the property of

debtor's assets, regardless of whether the debtor is the main debtor or a third party guarantor. In

this case, the creditor may take action only against the assets that secure the debt. Thus, the

concept entitled "secured debts" include, in accordance with those set out in Article 2327 C. civ.,

both mortgage and pledge and privileges, to which of course will be added the retention right.

Particular attention is to be given to the new regulated securities institutions and their

impact in the insolvency proceedings.

Page 15: Recuperarea creanţelor prin procedura insolvenţei · Fulfil the terms under art. 133 of the Insolvency Code regarding the legality §2. Fulfil the terms under art. 133 of the Insolvency

In this chapter, I have identified a number of legislative inadvertences and a total lack of

harmonization between the insolvency procedure and the new guarantee institutions, thus these

regulations are recently adopted (the new Civil Code entered into force in 2011, i.e. Law No

85/2014 on the procedures for the prevention of insolvency and insolvency).

According to the Civil Code, the securities shall be divided into two major categories:

personal guarantees and valuable security (mortgages). There is a fundamental difference

between these two securities categories; unlike the valuable guarantees (mortgages), giving the

right to tracking of the object regardless of the person who owns it, in the case of a personal

guarantee the third party shall guarantee with his entire assets, in the event of non-performance of

the obligation by the debtor.

I dedicated a fairly consistent part of this chapter to the issue of the compatibility between

the creditor’s common security limitations and the insolvency proceedings. Limited warranty can

be achieved only through the institution that allows an enforcement limitation. The enforcement

limitations that are regulated by law do not have incidence in the insolvency proceedings. Our

interest is focused on the way that the voluntary enforcement limitation can take effect:

patrimonial divisions related to exercise a profession regulated by law [2324 par. (4) Civil

Code.]; the trust (773-791); conventions that limit the mortgagees rights (art. 2325 Civil Code.);

clauses prohibiting enforcement and alienation (art. 2329 Civil Code.).

2.3. Chapter three analyzes how creditors may recover their debts through the

reorganization plan. The persons who are entitled to propose a reorganization plan and the

conditions under which the debtor, the judicial administrator and the creditors may propose that

the reorganization plan are fully examined.

The legal conditions that must be satisfied by the plan and how to vote it are dealt with

in extenso. I also analyzed in details the debt categories which may vote for the plan and the

manner in which they are created. A section of this chapter examines the effects produced by the

ruling of confirmation the reorganization plan on debts. The debts and the securities changes that

are made upon the confirmation plan are reversible, with the assumption that the plan fails, and

bankruptcy proceedings are opened.

Page 16: Recuperarea creanţelor prin procedura insolvenţei · Fulfil the terms under art. 133 of the Insolvency Code regarding the legality §2. Fulfil the terms under art. 133 of the Insolvency

I also analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of the reorganization procedure for

creditors. Reorganization procedure is beneficial to creditors if its main goal is the recovery of

debts, even if not entirely so, whereas the amounts so collected will be higher than those that may

be recovered in the context of bankruptcy such as require under Article 139 (2) (a) of the

Insolvency Code. Also, creditors that are the debtor’s suppliers will have the opportunity to

continue the commercial relations with the debtor. The debts that are accumulated after the

opening of the insolvency proceedings, having a normal treatment, will be paid as it is normally

done outside the insolvency procedure.

Another advantage judicial reorganization takes in is linked to the changing effects of a

judgment, for confirmation of the reorganization plan. In these circumstances creditors should be

inclined to vote for the reorganization plan by which will receive more than in case of

bankruptcy, due to the fact that they have a "safety net" the regulation under article 140 (1)

sentence II of the Insolvency Code. Thus, with the assumption that the plan fails, the debts will

be reinstated as submitted in the debt definitive table.

A special attention has been given to the confirmation of the reorganization plan procedure in

which some major changes were made with the adoption of Law No 85/2014. These changes

allow the syndic judge to exercise, in addition to the legality control over the plan, also a

sustainability control. Thus, the syndic judge may reject the plan confirmation if he finds it

unsustainable.

The end of this chapter analysis the reorganization methods that are specific to corporate law

– pin off and merging. Although we face a new regulation, I noticed that Law no. 85/2014 does

not contain specific rules concerning the procedure for merger / spin off, if the companies

involved are in insolvency. The provisions of Law no. 31/1990 concerning mergers and spinning

off are not fully compatible with insolvency proceedings, which is the reason why it was

necessary to identify practical solutions designed to unlock the impediments that might arise in

implementing and completing these processes.

2.4. The fourth chapter is intended for analysis of detailed rules by which creditors can fully

recover their debts in the bankruptcy procedure. Once the debtor enters into the bankruptcy

Page 17: Recuperarea creanţelor prin procedura insolvenţei · Fulfil the terms under art. 133 of the Insolvency Code regarding the legality §2. Fulfil the terms under art. 133 of the Insolvency

procedure, all operations are focused on debtor's liquidation of assets. The debtor's leadership and

control over the company is handed over to the liquidator.

I also analyzed the causes of bankruptcy: the failure of the reorganization plan, the rejection

of the reorganization plan by the creditors' assembly, the plan rejection by the syndic judge and

the entry directly in simplified bankruptcy procedure.

As a result of switching to the bankruptcy phase, a reconfiguration of the table of debts

occurs. If the debtor enters directly in the bankruptcy phase a reconfiguration of debts is not

necessary.

Analyzed in a separate section, the liquidation shall be carried out by the liquidator under

the control syndic judge in matters of legality, i.e. under the control of creditors on aspects of

opportunity. The liquidator is to maximize the debtor's assets in an expeditious manner.

Distribution of amounts resulting from debtor's assets shall be made by the liquidator, after

drafting up a plan for distribution, accompanied by a report on the funds obtained from winding-

up proceedings, and submitting it before the committee of creditors.

I identified the mechanisms that allow the creditor to recover their debts in this last stage of

the insolvency proceedings. By passing to the bankruptcy, the debtor enters in the definitive stage

of the insolvency proceedings. All operations are directed toward asset liquidation the company’s

management being passed down to the liquidator. As a result of entering to the bankruptcy the

debtor's dissolution occurs, as legal person.

The purpose of the insolvency procedure (Article 2 of the Code insolvency), regulates a

hierarchy of procedures in insolvency, preferring the reorganization "when possible", than the

bankruptcy.

In bankruptcy the debtor's assets have to be secured (recovery of goods in the possession of

others, submitting claw back actions, recovery of possible debts owed to the debtor by third

parties) and the amounts arising out of winding-up have to be distributed to the creditors but also

to the shareholders if the case.

Page 18: Recuperarea creanţelor prin procedura insolvenţei · Fulfil the terms under art. 133 of the Insolvency Code regarding the legality §2. Fulfil the terms under art. 133 of the Insolvency

2.5. Chapter five deals with the claw back action. This action does not have as a direct

result the recovery of debts by the creditors, but increased considerably the debtor's assets.

Within this chapter I analyzed the legal nature of the claw back action, being highlighted its legal

nature, and its special characteristics that unite several institutions, i.e. the action in annulment

and the revocatory action (pauliene). A precise definition of the legal nature of the claw back

action is important in order to determine the competent organs to carry out judgment.

A separate section is dedicated to when the filing of a claw back action may occur. In short,

it can be filed during the observation period, in the reorganization period, as well as during the

winding-up proceedings. With respect to the conditions for exercising the action, the texts under

Article 117 of the Insolvency Code regulate two types of claw back actions, classified in terms of

the need for demonstration of existence of fraud.

I also analyzed the effects of ruling in favor of the applicant. In short, if ruling in favor of

the claw back action as regulated under art. 117 of the Insolvency Code, the third party acquirer

will have to return to the debtor's property the asset that was transferred, or, if the property no

longer exists, he has to return its value as determined by an expertise.

The justification for the existence of a claw back action is closely linked to the fact that

the acts in question, concluded by the debtor, are free of utility for its own, or create an abnormal

advantage to certain creditors. If not in insolvency, such acts are not void, as they fulfill the

conditions laid down by law at the time of conclusion.

To prove the fraud, under art. 117 of the Insolvency Code, does not imply the existence of

intent of the debtor or of the third party. In the event that bad faith can be proven, the provisions

under Articles 117-122 of the Insolvency Code instate a different sanctioning regime. Ill

intentions or bad faith do not represent an eligibility condition for the claw back action. At the

same time proof of good faith can’t determine the syndic judge to dismiss the claw back action. It

is not necessary to prove fraudulent behavior, but so far only demonstrate the existence of an

abnormal advantage for certain creditors, i.e. breaking the equilibrium between creditors of the

same category.

2.6. Chapter six deals with personal liability action against the persons who have

contributed to the insolvency. This action is a remedy that is available to the participants in the

insolvency proceedings in order to cover the possible insufficiency of the assets. In the first

section I analysed the legal nature of the liability action. I demonstrated that, absent the

contractual relationship between the debtor and its creditors, the civil liability for the occurrence

of insolvency is, by nature, a form of tort.

In a separate section I analyzed when the liability action may be filed. The action against

the persons whom contributed to the insolvency can be made both during reorganization, as well

as during the winding-up proceedings.

The conditions necessary to make liable the persons who has contributed to the occurrence

of the insolvency are as follows: a) an insolvency procedure has to be opened against the debtor;

b) insufficient assets to pay all liabilities. Also will be explained in detail the conditions for tort

liability: a) the existence of a fault; b) the existence damages; c) the existence of causal

relationship and d) the existence of guilt.

A section of this chapter will be devoted to procedural incidents in connection with the

liability action. A detailed analysis is made in respect of locus standi and liabilities, statute of

limitations etc.

The liability action against the persons who have contributed to the insolvency is a special

form of tort, whose premise is the insufficient assets to cover the debts. The damages that can be

covered by this specific action are the ones suffered by the creditors, whereas the debtor’s assets

are unable to cover all debts.

An action for damages governed under art. 169 Law no. 85/2014 cannot be regarded as

not having a punitive character, as it was rightly considered in former regulation Law no.

85/2006. The first component of liability, which determines the damage caused by the asset

insufficiency coverage, still remains without a sanctioning component, because the total amount

of compensation can’t overcome damages suffered by the creditors. Complementary the sanction

limiting the right of a person to be in the management of a company exercise for a period of 10

years after completion of judgment, has a punitive character.

Page 20: Recuperarea creanţelor prin procedura insolvenţei · Fulfil the terms under art. 133 of the Insolvency Code regarding the legality §2. Fulfil the terms under art. 133 of the Insolvency

Another extremely important aspect is related to the fact that people who may be

responsible for the insolvency are not limited to the governing bodies of the debtor. In addition to

these persons, one can be held liable if being a shadow director. This category of persons is not

formally vested with powers of management, but sovereignly and independently exercises a

positive activity management and administration society. In these categories we can find any

person who, with intent, did one of the acts listed under Article. 169 of the Insolvency Code, and

by doing so it caused the insolvency: State and administrative establishments, banks, parent

companies, economic interest groups.

2.7. Chapter seven analyzes the final phase of insolvency, namely the closure procedure.

This phase is marked by final judgment which, once passed, will annihilate all the effects of the

opening of proceedings, meaning that the syndic judge and the judicial administrator or liquidator

lose their powers against the debtor in question.

Closure of insolvency proceedings may result either in saving the debtor and reentering into

the economic circuit as a viable participant and unencumbered by debts, or the termination of the

debtor as a result of its dissolution.

The closure of the insolvency procedure is a process with a high degree of difficulty, caused

most frequently by the objections made by the participants in the proceedings, namely appeals

against decisions of the syndic judge.

Seven hypotheses can be identified that determine closing the insolvency procedure, each of

them being treated separately, depending on the particularities and the effects they produce: Lack

of resources; Successful execution of the reorganization plan; The completion of all distributions

in liquidation and bankruptcy; Covering all debts even before completion of the liquidation;

Failure to register any debt on the list of creditors after opening a voluntary insolvency

proceedings; The payment of all debts during the observation period; The merger of the debtor

with a non-insolvent company.

The last part of this chapter deals with the effects of the closure procedure: (i) in terms of

taxes awed by creditors or by the debtor; (ii) in terms of the claw back action and the personal

Page 21: Recuperarea creanţelor prin procedura insolvenţei · Fulfil the terms under art. 133 of the Insolvency Code regarding the legality §2. Fulfil the terms under art. 133 of the Insolvency

liability for opening the insolvency proceedings; (iii) in terms of effects on the possibility of

creditors to make claims against the debtor's personal guarantee.

3. Conclusions

The present study is the first that analyses the insolvency procedure exclusively from the

creditor’s perspective, thus offering a complex and comprehensive approach. At the end of our

study we can say that we have achieved an important step towards this goal, by analysing specific

mechanisms of insolvency proceedings, which are made available to the creditors for the

recovery of debts.

The insolvency proceedings is a special procedure by which the creditors can recover their

debts. The interwar law of "bankruptcy" was seen in close connection with the theory of

enforcement, from which it derived. With the adoption of Law No. 64/1995 and continuing with

Law No 85/2006, and now Law no. 85/2014, the insolvency proceedings cannot be compared

with ordinary execution procedure. The insolvency procedure is a collective procedure through

witch all creditors try to recover their debts, at the same time.

When opening the insolvency proceedings, the individual rights of creditors in respect of

debts which they hold against the debtor, suffer a series severe restrictions. Thus, all individual

actions against the debtor are suspended and later terminated [art. 75 para. (1) of the Insolvency

Code]. This limitations suffered by the creditors operate in order to protect the collective interest

of all creditors i.e. to come together at the table to satisfy their debts.

In this context, the goal is to respond to problems generated by the insolvency procedure

by identifying effective mechanisms to maximize the opportunities, expedite and enhance the

degree of debt recovery through this judicial procedure.
