Oddlženie fyzickej osoby

The effect of discharge of debts of a natural person of inheritance proceedings. The discharge of debt of natural persons represents a contemporary phenomenon that, by its effects, significantly interferes with legal relations across almost all areas of law, including inheritance law. As a legal institution, the discharge of debt of natural persons also has a substantial impact on probate proceedings, particularly where the discharge concerns either the decedent or one of the heirs. The contribution analyzes the effects of debt discharge on the course of inheritance proceedings, considering both discharge through bankruptcy and discharge through a repayment schedule, with due regard to the legal framework outlined in the Bankruptcy and Restructuring Act and the Non-Contentious Civil Procedure Code. The authors employ a systematic and comparative analysis of legal provisions, as well as interpretative approaches developed in case law and legal doctrine. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of distinguishing between claims that are subject to discharge and those that are excluded from satisfaction. It claims to be unaffected by discharge, as well as the necessity of refining procedural coordination between insolvency and inheritance proceedings.

Inštitút oddlženia fyzickej osoby bol v roku 2017 zásadným spôsobom novelizovaný, pričom predmetná novela úplne transformovala tento inštitút insolvenčného práva. Článok sa zaoberá problematikou oddlženia fyzickej osoby splátkovým kalendárom, ako jedným zo zákonom stanovených spôsobov oddlženia, pričom analyzuje obsah samotného procesu od návrhu na určenie splátkového kalendára až po samotné oddlženie a plnenie splátkového kalendára dlžníkom. Zároveň článok poukazuje aj na doterajšiu judikatúru konkurzných súdov v Slovenskej republike vo vzťahu k predmetnej problematike.
