Questão jurídica principal
Whether the directors' liability claim was time-barred under Art. 760 CO
Decisão extraída
The defendants did not prove that the plaintiff had sufficient knowledge of the damage and the responsible persons more than five years before the debt-enforcement steps.
Fundamentação extraída
The party invoking limitation bears the burden of proving the facts starting the limitation period. The alleged letter and fax were not proven to have reached the company, so the lower court could treat them as not communicated.
