Lawyer, economist, member of the RF CCI Committee on Entrepreneurship in the Sphere of Media Communications Pavel Katkov believes that bankruptcy is not the best path for a specific creditor, because in this case, he actually invites other creditors, as well as the state and other persons, to whom obligations must be fulfilled first, to the procedure. "It would be wiser to simply go with a claim for the recovery of funds. However, the plaintiff decided otherwise. Perhaps he has information that we do not. In any case, this is already becoming a trend. Foreign companies are leaving the Russian economy, often bahrain cell phone number list leaving local creditors with outstanding debts and obligations, which the latter do not want to tolerate," the lawyer noted. According to him, the desire to recover money risks being shattered by the impossibility of executing the court decision. "If a foreign company has no assets in Russia, it will not be easy to get anything even with the full support of the position of Russian plaintiffs by the court," Pavel Katkov believes.

, believes that if we look at the formal signs, the court will most likely initiate bankruptcy proceedings. "Three criteria are required to initiate bankruptcy proceedings against a legal entity. The debt is more than 300 thousand rubles, the delay in execution is more than three months and the presence of a court decision that has entered into legal force on the collection of debt from the debtor. Judging by the Arbitration Case File, both PJSC MegaFon and ZAO Krok Incorporated have litigated their claims for a long time, and the court decisions on the processes they initiated have entered into legal force. MegaFon's claims amount to 44 million rubles, and Krok's claims amount to 48 million rubles. This means that there are no obstacles to the court initiating bankruptcy proceedings, unless Oracle Computer Equipment fails to pay off the debt before the first court hearing to consider the bankruptcy petition. Sometimes petitions for declaring a debtor bankrupt are filed not in order to actually bankrupt the debtor, but in order to force him to negotiations," the lawyer explained.
