Questão jurídica principal
Whether taxes and public dues fall within the cash settlement provision only if secured by immovable pledge.
Decisão extraída
Taxes and dues are covered by the cash-settlement rule only when secured by immovable pledge; unsecured and unprivileged taxes must be treated like ordinary unsecured claims.
Fundamentação extraída
The ordinance distinguishes secured claims from ordinary claims. Unsecured, non-privileged public claims are not placed in the category of capital interest or secured tax claims and therefore follow the rules for ordinary creditors.
