Article 90 explained in plain English
This article of the Regulations deals with a special register, the register provided for in paragraph 2 of Article 204 of the Bankruptcy Law, and sets the rules for accessing it.
Where is it available? On the Bankruptcy Committee's website.
When is it available? After the penalty judgment becomes final. Access is not available before the judgment becomes final.
What is available? Access is limited to three items of data only:
- The name of the person on whom the penalty provided for in paragraph 2 of Article 203 of the Law was imposed.
- The type of penalty.
- Its duration.
No data other than these three is made available to the public under this article, and none of it is available before the judgment becomes final.
This register differs from the bankruptcy register dealt with in Article 89, which is open to the public on the Bankruptcy Committee's website without the restrictions in this article.
The article does not explain the content of the penalty in Article 203 of the Law. Anyone against whom a judgment has been issued, or who wants to understand the effect of this register, should preferably consult a lawyer specializing in bankruptcy and criminal cases.
