Marques, Letícia2013Marques , L 2013 , ' O regime especial da insolvência de pessoas singulares ' , Default journal .2182-6994This article has for its purpose the boarding of the possibility afforded to debtors who are individuals to have their remaining debts of the bankruptcy process totally discharged. Once a debtor requires a bankruptcy’s declaration, he usually sees their assets to be liquidated. However, their remaining debts would rest until the prescription. As a way to avoid this and because the debtor needs to be reinstated in the market and to be given another chance, a fresh start, debtor can require a discharge. However, in Portugal, this reality’s treatment, although it is a novelty and a solution to this increasingly common indebtedness’ situation, is inadequate, very slow and very tight against the need for a quick, effective and approachable process. Therefore, we propose its revision and we give some possible solutions.application/pdfporopenAccessDIREITOLAWarticle
