Key legal question
Whether the bankruptcy dividend had to be paid to the creditor in cash rather than placed in a savings account.
Extracted holding
Yes. Bankruptcy creditors are entitled to cash payment of their dividend, and the office may not substitute a savings deposit for cash settlement.
Extracted reasoning
Art. 129, 136 and 259 SchKG reflect the principle that realization in enforcement and bankruptcy is for cash; except for statutory exceptions such as pledge creditors, creditors need not accept another form of settlement. The legality of the office's act does not depend on whether concrete financial prejudice occurred.
