The Moscow City Arbitration Court satisfied the application of the bankruptcy trustee to bring the persons controlling the debtor to subsidiary liability. More than 17 million rubles were collected jointly and severally from the Debtor’s former managers. The interests of the bankruptcy creditor in the framework of a separate dispute were represented by Irina Morozova, lawyer of the bankruptcy dispute resolution practice of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure”.

The Arbitration Court of the Moscow District refused the procedural opponents of the Principal of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure” to satisfy the complaint against the ruling of the court of appeal on the appointment of a repeated forensic examination, which was requested by the lawyers of the Bureau. Leaving in force the ruling on the appointment of a forensic examination, the Arbitration Court of the Moscow District agreed with the arguments of the lawyers of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure” not only about the need to take into account the position of the Plenum of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation, according to which the court’s ruling on the appointment of an examination can be appealed only in terms of the groundlessness of the suspension of proceedings in the case, but also in view of the fact that the need for the appointment of an examination by the court of appeal is justified by the arguments of the appeal about gross violations of the procedure for appointing a primary forensic examination by the court of first instance. In addition, the range of questions raised and the procedure for appointing an expert examination by the court of appeal were generally recognized by the court of cassation as in accordance with the law. The Principal’s interests were defended by Nikita Filippov, Head of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure”, and Rashid Gitinov, Head of the Bureau’s Dispute Resolution Practice with State Authorities.
