Receiverships to Maintain Marital Dissolution

18. What happens to a principal who has guaranteed debt of the Assignor after the General Assignment is commenced?

  • The principal remains liable on the personal guarantee
  • However, in our experience the participation of a principal in the process of liquidation is very helpful because of their knowledge of the industry and the assets to be liquidated
  • Secured creditors often encourage the participation of principles in the liquidation process and offer incentives, such as forgiveness on guarantees in the event that assets are liquidated for pre-agreed values
