Legislator summary

AI generated

The court dismissed the creditor's claim for priority payment from the bankruptcy estate to employees who had transferred their services before bankruptcy. The creditor argued that the employees owed them wages under their agreement, but the court found no evidence that the employees had actually transferred the claim to the creditor. Consequently, the claim was rejected because the prerequisite for establishing the debt transfer was not met.

Konkurssivelkoja oli maksanut palvelukseensa velallisen palveluksesta ennen konkurssin alkua siirtyneille työntekijöille, heidän kanssaan tekemänsä sopimuksen mukaisesti, heillä velalliselta saamatta olleita työpalkkoja.

Velkojan vaatimus saatavien määräämisestä maksettavaksi konkurssipesästä EOA 4 §:n 1 momentissa tarkoitetuin etuoikeuksin hylättiin, kun ei ollut väitettykään työntekijöiden siirtäneen saataviaan maksun suorittajalle.
