Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court of Finland allowed the claim for interest on work-related debts despite the employer's bankruptcy filing. The creditor argued that interest should accrue from the debt's creation, while the opposing party contended that bankruptcy proceedings should halt all interest accumulation. The court ruled that since the interest was not yet due at the time of bankruptcy, it remains a valid claim subject to the general rules of interest calculation.
