Creditor in debt restructuring must reimburse state for lawyer fees paid to debtor's counsel upon appeal rejection.

The Supreme Court ruled that a creditor in a debt restructuring proceeding must reimburse the state for legal fees paid to the debtor's counsel when the appeal was rejected. The creditor argued the state should bear the cost, but the court found the debtor's counsel acted on the creditor's instruction to challenge the restructuring. Consequently, the court held the creditor liable for the expenses incurred by the state to provide legal assistance to the instructed party.
