Key legal question
Whether the 30 January 2007 contract constituted a debt acknowledgment under Art. 82 SchKG for provisional debt relief
Extracted holding
Yes, the written contract was a valid debt acknowledgment for EUR 1 million unpaid price and EUR 500,000 penalty.
Extracted reasoning
The contract contained a signed obligation to pay a determinable sum. For provisional debt relief, the court only examines the existence of an enforceable title, not the underlying claim on the merits.
