Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Court ruled that an employer's insolvency for employee protection purposes arises at any bankruptcy-related court decision, including those allowing restructuring plans. The Syndic argued insolvency only occurred upon the final liquidation order, while the Fund for Guaranteed Employee Benefits contended otherwise. The court rejected this distinction, stating that rigid rules would harm workers and that legislative intent treats all such rulings as equally establishing insolvency.
