Where a company has its statutory seat but no business office, maintaining its domicile with another company, enforcement documents must be served at the domicile indicated in the commercial register, according to mandatory provisions governing the place of enforcement and service for stock corporations. The court reasoned that since the company's only place of business was a domicile held at another entity, service must be directed to that domicile, where a representative of the domicile holder is authorized to receive such documents, making direct personal service on a board member residing elsewhere impermissible, although ultimately affirming the prior actions as no legal disadvantage was suffered by the debtor.
