French Commercial code
In forceIf the judicial liquidation is closed due to insufficient assets and it appears that assets have not been realised or that actions in the interest of creditors have not been taken during the course of the proceedings, the proceedings may be resumed.
The matter is referred to the court by the previously appointed liquidator, by the public prosecutor or by any interested creditor. If the matter is referred to it by a creditor, the latter must prove that he has deposited at the court registry the funds required for the costs of the operations. The amount of the costs deposited shall be reimbursed to the creditor by priority out of the sums recovered following the resumption of the proceedings.
The resumption of the proceedings shall produce its effects retroactively for all of the debtor's assets that the liquidator should have realised prior to the closure of the judicial liquidation proceedings.
If the debtor's assets consist of a sum of money, the procedure provided for in Chapter IV of this Title shall apply by operation of law.
