peer agreement (net): +1

obtain a writ of account against

Explanation:
Collins Dict. gives "obtain a writ of account against" as a Swiss meaning of betreiben. I'm not quite sure how you work that into your sentence grammatically, but perhaps it's a starting point.

4 hrs confidence:

is being prosecuted in person/by name to pay

Explanation:
"namentlich" means that the prosecution names the laggard, it is not an anonymous entity/company or such. You could translate it as BY NAME or IN PERSON.
"betrieben" verb or Betreibung "noun" stands for the legal action being taken to receive the money.
"Nachlassstundung" is a deferred payment of the debt for which the debtor may appeal before a court or out of court.
