Years after the bankruptcy of the Dayli drugstore chain (formerly Schlecker), the former head of the trading company, Rudolf Haberleitner, is now insolvent himself.
With the decision of December 29th by the District Court of Inner City Vienna, the debt settlement procedure was opened on Haberleitner's assets, the KSV1870 Association for the Protection of Creditors announced on Wednesday.
More detailed information on the number of creditors affected and on the assets and liabilities is not yet available. The report and audit conference will take place on March 15, 2021. The judicial registration deadline was set for March 15th. Philipp Dobner was appointed as trustee.
Haberleitner was only recently acquitted of the charge of grossly negligent impairment of creditors' interests in criminal proceedings at the Linz Regional Court. The acquittal has been final since October.
Another point that concerns managing director remuneration that is still paid after the insolvency occurs is dealt with by means of diversion. The private parties involved were referred to civil law with their claims.
When Dayli went bankrupt in 2013, 3,500 employees lost their jobs. The claims recognized in insolvency proceedings amounted to almost 113 million euros.
