In the cases provided for in Articles L. 653-3 to L. 653-6 and L. 653-8, the matter is referred to the court by the judicial representative, the liquidator or the public prosecutor.
In the collective interest of the creditors, the matter may also be referred to the court at any time during the proceedings by the majority of the creditors appointed as controllers when the court-appointed agent with standing has not taken the actions provided for in the same articles, after a formal notice has remained unanswered within a period and under conditions set by decree in the Conseil d’Etat.
