– judgment of the Supreme Court of 18 June 2021 - case file no.: IV CSKP 92/21
The cited judgment is not groundbreaking, for it is in line with the existing body of rulings by common courts, according to which the termination of a loan agreement should be preceded by a call on the borrower to repay the debt within 14 working days and a notice to submit an application for debt restructuring within the same period of time. It is only after the bank has complied with the obligations set out in Article 75c of the Banking Law that the loan agreement may be terminated against the borrower.
The Supreme Court also rightly held that failure to comply with the above procedure does not lead to the invalidity of the termination of the loan agreement, but to the ineffectiveness of such termination.
