Who are pre-preferential creditors?

This is achieved by amending the status of some creditors' claims - making them effectively pre-preferential. For example, under Spanish law, claims of an administrative and labour-related nature are not automatically suspended on the date of the declaration of the bankruptcy. Under Polish law, secured creditors with rights in rem may enforce their claims against encumbered assets in an arrangement bankruptcy (the claims are not covered by the arrangement proceedings to the extent they are covered by security) and initiate enforcement proceedings. In some EU Member States, the court has the power to lift the stay. Under Swedish law, upon the issuing of a bankruptcy order, a landlord is entitled to terminate the debtor's lease. If commercial premises are involved and the bankruptcy administrator fails to assume liability for the tenant's obligations during the term of the relevant lease within one month from demand, the landlord may repossess the premises. Under German law, the security interest and ownership interest of creditors with rights to preferential treatment may only be realized after the Creditors' Report Meeting has been held. If after the Creditors' Report Meeting, the insolvency administrator decides to use the property for the insolvency estate, he must pay a rent/interest to those creditors with a security interest in the insolvency estate. In the UK, amounts becoming due under a lease during the period that an administrator is in beneficial occupation are expenses of the estate.

What happens to the administrator of an estate with creditors?

The Administrator must file the proper notices that the estate has been filed to give the creditors the opportunity to file claims against the estate. The estate is responsible for the debts of the deceased. Claims by creditors must be paid before any assets can be distributed to the heirs-at-law. There is a statutory schedule by which creditors must be paid. If there are not enough assets to pay the creditors the estate is declared insolvent. The adminstration of an estate is a legal process that must be done according to the law. If the appointed Administrator doesn't know how to carry out their duties according to the law they should hire an attorney to supervise the probate process. Distribution of assets before creditors are paid can leave the Administrator exposed to personal liability.
