There needs to be a process whereby the defendant as part of their
submissions should have to place into the care of the court an amount
of cash, to cover the reasonable expectations of losing the case,
failure to do so should result in assets being seized - before the
case has been heard.
OR alternatively the claimant having won should by law have the right
to immediate payment, with failure to pay immediately, giving the
claimant the immediate right to seize goods from premises. With the
court procedure requiring of the defendant as part of the submissions
for the case, the requirement that the defendant discloses facts about
assets held and bank accounts.
And of course the director of a company that has closed business
should be directly responsible for the debts of that company even
after the company has been ended. |
