Creditor in debt restructuring must reimburse state for lawyer fees paid to debtor's counsel upon appeal rejection.

The Supreme Court ruled that a creditor who lost a debt restructuring appeal must reimburse the state for legal fees paid to the debtor's counsel. The creditor argued the state should bear costs, but the court held the creditor is liable for the appeal process expenses. Consequently, the court ordered the creditor to pay the amount advanced by the state to the lawyer.
