The Supreme Court permitted a new debt arrangement application filed by individuals whose previous payment plans had been ordered to cease. The applicants argued that the cessation of their prior plans created a legal obstacle preventing them from seeking fresh relief, while the opposing party contended that the original orders remained binding. The court ruled that the termination of the previous payment program constituted a sufficient ground to evaluate the necessity of a new arrangement, thereby allowing the fresh application to proceed.
