A copy of any final court decision declaring the company null and void shall, at the request of the public prosecutor, be filed with the trade and company register in which the company is registered and sent to the director general of the regional health agency and to the councils of the association to which the members belong.
Early dissolution may be decided by at least three quarters of the members. A copy of this decision is filed by the legal representative(s) with the Trade and Companies Register in which the company is registered and sent to the Director General of the Regional Health Agency and to the Councils of the Association to which the members belong.
The company is dissolved ipso jure if all the partners have been struck off the roll of the relevant Association. Decisions to strike off the roll are filed with the Trade and Companies Register by the relevant Bar Council.
The company is automatically dissolved by the simultaneous death of all the partners or by the death of the last partner.
The company is automatically dissolved by a request for withdrawal made either simultaneously by all the shareholders or by the last of them.
The company is in liquidation as soon as it is dissolved for any reason whatsoever or as soon as the court decision declaring it null and void has become final. The legal personality of the company continues for the purposes of the liquidation, until the liquidation is completed. The company name must be followed by the words: “company in liquidation”.
When a court decision declares the company null and void or dissolves it, it appoints the liquidator.
Except in the event of the company being struck off, the liquidator may be chosen from among the partners. Where there is only one remaining partner, that partner is automatically the liquidator.
If the liquidator has not been appointed or has refused to accept his duties, the President of the Commercial Court of the place of the registered office, acting in summary proceedings at the request of the public prosecutor or any other interested person, appoints the liquidator. The same procedure is used to replace the liquidator in the event of his death or resignation or for serious reasons.
Under no circumstances may the duties of liquidator be entrusted to a person struck off the roll of an association. Several liquidators may be appointed.
