The article discusses a ruling issued by the Norwegian Supreme Court in which the court held that a bankruptcy estate for the purposes of statute of limitation did not pursue a claim against the former CEO independently of a claim the company itself might have filed against the former CEO. A claim from the company against the former CEO was time barred prior to the bankruptcy. In consequence, the court held that the claim from the estate was time barred. The author calls for new legislation to protect the best interest of the creditors. The author represented the bankruptcy estate.
