Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the bankruptcy complaint was inadmissible because the lawyer lacked capacity to act due to a conflict of interest.
Decisione estratta
The complaint could be declared inadmissible because the lawyer’s simultaneous representation of the bankruptcy estate and a creditor created a prohibited conflict of interest.
Motivazione estratta
The court held that the estate had appointed the lawyer in the underlying litigation, while he also represented a creditor who sought assignment of the claim under Art. 260 LP. That concurrent representation was enough to trigger Art. 12(c) LLCA; the existence of a concrete risk of conflicting interests was sufficient.
