The High Court of Cassation and Justice admitted an appeal in the public interest filed by the Board of Directors of the Court of Appeal Iaşi, establishing that an insolvency procedure cannot be closed prior to the final resolution of a liability action for causing insolvency. The dispute concerned the interpretation and uniform application of insolvency law regarding the sequencing of procedural closure and the adjudication of director liability claims. The court's decisive legal basis was the consolidated interpretation of Article 174, Article 173(2), and Article 180 of Law No. 85/2014 concerning insolvency prevention and proceedings, read in conjunction with Article 169 of the same law, mandating that the liability action under Article 169 must be definitively settled before the main insolvency case is terminated.
