Sintesi Legislator

Generato dall'IA

The Supreme Court allowed the creditor's appeal against the lower court's dismissal, ruling that the joint debtor remains liable for the entire debt. Although the statute of limitations had expired for co-debtor B, the court determined that the limitation period for co-debtor A had not yet run out. Consequently, the creditor successfully argued that A must pay the full amount, overriding the lower court's decision based on B's expiration.

Testo completo

A ja B oli lainhakupäätöksellä velvoitettu yhteisvastuullisesti maksamaan vekselisaatava. Saatava oli sittemmin vanhentunut B:n osalta. Ulosottomies oli A:ta vastaan haetussa ulosotossa katsonut, että A vastasi enää saatavan puolesta määrästä. Velkoja oli valittanut ulosottomiehen päätöksestä ja vaatinut vahvistettavaksi, että A oli vastuussa saatavan koko määrästä. Käräjäoikeus oli soveltaen vanhentumisasetuksen 3 §:n säännöstä hylännyt valituksen. Kysymys siitä, voitiinko velkojan hovioikeuteen tekemä valitus seuloa ja oliko A vastuussa saatavan koko määrästä. Ks. KKO:2006:43
