In essence, the behavior leads to the indefinite extension of the loan term and the increasing risk of non-performing loans. Nowadays, a large number of non-performing assets disposal is imminent. How to avoid the guarantor's "out of guarantee" in "borrowing new loan to pay old loan" is not only an important grasp of the realization of the creditor's rights at the disposal end of the non-performing assets, but also determines the price of the non-performing asset package transferred by commercial banks.
  • The Effect of Actual Capital Contributors’ Execution Objection2021-05-06
    In the process of business activities such as the establishment of companies, many actual investors of companies invest by the way of holding shares for the consideration of the number of shareholders, evasion of legal provisions, investment proportion, identity and other restrictive factors, which leads to the endless litigation of execution objection caused by the act of holding shares for the purpose of holding shares for the company in recent years. Can the dormant shareholder exercise the right of objection when the creditor of the nominal shareholder requests the court to enforce the equity of the nominal shareholder? Can dormant shareholders effectively fight against creditors of nominal shareholders? How does the court determine the validity of its objection? It is a subject with both practical significance and academic research value. Its essence lies in "whether the act of holding on behalf is applicable to commercial externalism, especially when the act of holding on behalf conflicts with the interests of creditors".
  • Dilemma of Behavior Preservation in Controlling Rights Dispute2021-03-02
    In recent years, various disputes over the control of the company have emerged one after another. The struggle between shareholders and husband and wife for the control and management of the company is surging, and battles are happening every moment. In recent years, the "competition" of official seals and related licenses has been common in such disputes. The public security organs often do not intervene in the handling of disputes, and more guide the parties to file lawsuits in the courts. However, the litigation process related to the " battle for control " related to company resolution disputes, license return disputes, etc., has been in dispute for several years. How to ensure the realization of the company's control rights during the settlement process? How to ensure that the company's operations are not interfered by other disputes of the company? These are all major issues that need to be solved urgently. The "behavior preservation" entrusted by the law to the courts has shown its power at this time. Although due to various considerations, judicial administrative agencies often take a very cautious attitude when making behavior preservation decisions in practice. Because of this, the application of the behavior preservation system in the disputes over the control of the company is worthy of our in-depth discussion here. The dispute resolution team of Beijing Docvit Law Firm will analyze this issue in combination with a series of recent cases of corporate control struggles.
