you're right it would seem...... Explanation: Debt Collections in Switzerland [E] |Frick & Frick Rechtsanwälte ... ... If the claim is founded on a debt acknowledgement, the creditor has to ... court action for declaratory judgement that the debt does not exist (Aberkennungsklage). ... www.fricklaw.ch/english/articles/debtcollections1.htm - 32k 7.1.4. Claim founding on a debt acknowledgement If the claim is founded on a debt acknowledgement, the creditor has to request a provisional decree to remove opposition. This happens by summary court procedure and may end with the provisional decree to remove objection by the debtor. The provisional removal becomes final if the debtor fails to initiate ordinary court action for declaratory judgement that the debt does not exist (Aberkennungsklage). The creditor who has obtained the provisional removal has the right to provisionally seize assets of the debtor, which usually increases the willingness of the debtor to cooperate to find a solution. If the debtor initiates ordinary court action, the roles of the parties will be inverted in the way that the debtor is now plaintiff and wants a declaratory judgement that the debt does not exist. The burden of proof does however not change. The creditor as defendant has to prove that the claim does exist. The difference to a normal claim action without a debt enforcement proceeding is that the claim of the creditor is secured by the provisional seizure. http://www.fricklaw.ch/english/articles/debtcollections1.htm For what it's worth, Romain gives "dismiss" for aberkennen (a claim). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-11-09 09:35:52 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- another possible definition based on French equivalent: action en libération de dette Action for discharge of debt Aberkennungsklage action en libération de dette f azione d\'inesistenza del debito f Eurodicatom: HitList 1. action en libération de dette(1) BTB - JUR86 - 192 Document 1 Subject Law - Legislation - Jurisprudence (JU) (1) TERM action en libération de dette Reference Le Docte,Dict.jur.,Oyez,Brussels 1978 (1) TERM action for discharge of debt Reference Le Docte,Legal Dict.,Oyez,Brussels 1978 Reference: http://www.fricklaw.ch/english/articles/debtcollections1.htm |
