Payment of Registered Claims by a Debtor’s Founder

Before liquidation proceedings end, a founder, a unitary-enterprise owner or a third party may simultaneously satisfy all registered claims or provide sufficient funds to the debtor. Article 125 does not permit selecting preferred creditors: it addresses the entire register and ends with court review of the report.

The entire register

Selective partial payment does not produce the Article 125 outcome.

Funding is permitted

The payer may provide the debtor with enough money under the Article 113 process.

The court decides

After reviewing the report, the court terminates proceedings if the register is fully satisfied.

Quick self-check
  • Obtain the current register amount and payment details.
  • Account for all components governed by the procedure.
  • Select one lawful execution method.
  • Keep transfers and reconciliation records.
  • Review the report and final court order.

Who May Pay and When

The right exists at any time before liquidation proceedings end. It belongs to the unitary-enterprise owner, debtor founders or members, and one or more third parties.

Affiliation alone does not cancel the mechanism. The funding source, authority and payments should nevertheless be transparent and documented.

Why the Entire Register Matters

Article 125 requires simultaneous satisfaction of all registered claims or enough funding for that purpose. Paying one selected creditor does not replace the special procedure and may create separate legal risks.

How Funds Are Provided

Article 125 incorporates the procedure and conditions of Article 113. The working file includes an application, current claim totals, bank details, payment records and payer information. Register changes and court orders should be checked immediately before transfer.

Report and Court Review

After performance, the insolvency administrator files the report under the statutory cross-reference. The court checks completeness and considers approval.

  1. freeze the register snapshot;
  2. calculate the total;
  3. document the application and funding source;
  4. make payments through the approved route;
  5. reconcile receipts;
  6. file the report and obtain the court order.

How the Proceeding Ends

If all registered claims are satisfied, the court terminates the bankruptcy proceeding. Article 149 distinguishes this from ordinary completion of liquidation proceedings followed by the debtor’s deletion.
