Article 2 par. 2 bis of Law 89/2001 states that the reasonable duration of bankruptcy proceedings is six years.
The Supreme Court, by order no. 34836/2023, stated that this term may apply only in the case of bankruptcy proceedings with a single creditor or, in any event, with a limited number of creditors, with no complex litigation issues. The Supreme
Court stated that if the bankruptcy proceedings is characterized by an extraordinary complexity, the reasonable duration of
the proceedings must be ascertained in seven years. This time frame cannot, in any event, includes the time of the sales auctions, i.e. the time necessary to repeat the attempted sale that went unsuccessful due to a lack of bidders, since this is a market event beyond the control of the court.
The particular complexity of the procedure may be due to the large number of creditors, the nature or legal situation of the assets to be liquidated, the proliferation of related judgments or the plurality of interdependent insolvency proceedings.
All these elements are to be taken into account in order to extend the not unreasonable duration of the proceedings up to a maximum of seven years for the purposes of the liquidation of the fair compensation.
