A key problem in the appointment of re-examination

Practice shows that courts accept review as a means of evidence in contesting examinations. However, one review to decide whether a re-examination is not enough.

The expert’s conclusions will always be unsuccessful to one of the parties to the dispute. Although theoretically the number of repeated examinations is not limited, it is pointless to appoint them indefinitely only because of disagreement with the outcome.

In order to significantly increase the chance of contesting the results of forensic examination, it is not necessary to involve specialists only for the preparation of the review.

The best solution for successful achievement of the goal

Three mandatory tasks are to be performed to convince the court of the need for re-examination:

show a significant distortion of the result
show a significant distortion of the result
show the existence of formal, procedural violations
show the existence of formal, procedural violations
to hear the court’s position
to hear the court’s position

Since reviewing alone does not allow all of them to be resolved, a comprehensive method should be used.

Our approach consists of three stages:

1

Prepared for review

Preparation of a review is a mandatory step. In it, a specialist can not only point to violations, but also demonstrate how their elimination will lead to a significant change in the final conclusion.

The final document will be written evidence in the case and one of the arguments to which the court will refer when re-examining.

This step is designed to help the court hear your position. The survey should pay attention to everything that would make the court question the opponent’s position: the expert confused in the answers, could not justify the conclusions, and so on.

When a specialist conducts a survey with a legal lawyer, he helps to navigate faster in the opponent’s replies.

Formation of a position on the results of the expert survey

The quality of an expert’s survey entails the meeting. The court paused to formulate its own position on the survey. It needs to be used.

At this time, the audio recording of the meeting should be required, a transcript and additional written explanations on the survey should be created.

Formation of a position on the results of the expert survey

Get up, the court is coming!

The case is being heard of bringing the controlling persons to subsidiary liability, joint penalty to the competitive mass of CJSC A of 2136467547.06 rubles.

The expert concluded that there were no signs of deliberate bankruptcy.

You are a lender.

See what ended

The creditor disagreed with the expert’s opinion, suggesting that the expert did not request the necessary documents.

In response, the expert organization provided written explanations on the creditor’s arguments. The Court examined the clarification of experts and concluded that the experts had submitted arguments which denied the creditor’s position, which in fact was “I disagree”.

Since reviewing alone does not allow all of them to be resolved, a comprehensive method should be used.

We were participants in this process and won. To show how the integrated approach works, we will return to the beginning, where the results of the examination were different: the expert concluded that the debtor was deliberately bankrupt in the period XX. XX.20XX to XX. XX.20XX.

Position on the expert’s survey

The expert had objected to the clarification, including the review and report from the expert group Veta.

The expert of the Veta expert group interviewed the expert at the court hearing, which was key to the court’s decision to re-examine. After questions from Veta, it became clear that the expert could not clearly substantiate his position and made the wrong conclusions.

Forward
How did the court justify the need for re-examination?
  1. The expert in the conclusion examines the operation of the competitive manager of the debtor, including in the case of non-inventory of the debtor’s property or inclusion of it in the competitive mass. This analysis has influenced the main findings.
  2. The expert did not take into account that both of the debtor’s competitive managers had been granted their status after the debtor’s bankruptcy and could not have affected the debtor’s insolvency factors before.
  3. The subject matter of the case before it is not a dispute over recovery of losses from the debtor’s competitive managers. The managers are not defendants to the dispute and the analysis of their activities cannot be taken into account as a fact that indicates the debtor’s insolvency factors.
  4. The expert exceeded the limits of competence by having independently conducted legal requalification of legal relations, which had previously been established by claims court.
