A novação da recuperação judicial aplicada na resolução de problemas do contencioso cívellições a partir da atuação no setor imobiliário

Resumo

In judicial reorganization proceedings – the Brazilian legal process for corporate restructuring – the approval of the reorganization plan, submitted for creditor review, results in the novation of obligations arising from triggering events that occurred prior to the filing of the petition. This novation, operating within the context of judicial reorganization, is governed by a specific legal framework that both aligns with and diverges from the general principles of the Civil Code. The objective of this study is to analyze the consequences of applying this normative framework to resolve disputes in litigation involving claims affected by reorganization. These issues have become recurrent among companies undergoing judicial reorganization, as evidenced by precedents from the Court of Justice of the State of São Paulo and the Superior Court of Justice. The research first examines the possibility of piercing the corporate veil to impose immediate liability on the shareholders or directors of the debtor in reorganization. Next, it investigates the limits and criteria for applying legal set-off – a mechanism that extinguishes claims against the debtor. Finally, the study scrutinizes the implications of exercising the right of recourse against the debtor, with particular emphasis on judicial guarantee insurance, a form of surety insurance used to secure litigation obligations. Based on doctrinal analysis and jurisprudence, the study aims to provide well-founded conclusions that ensure predictability and legal certainty, thereby equipping legal practitioners with the necessary tools for effective dispute resolution and risk mitigation.
