It's time for the co-owners of the Samara “Rodnik” to drink bitter

Source The court determined those responsible for the losses of the bankrupt Samara plant. The Arbitration Court of the Samara Region recognized as proven the existence of grounds for bringing the co-owner of Samara Plant Rodnik LLC Pavel Smetana, RegionBusinessContact LLC and Kristall-Lefortovo LLC to subsidiary liability for the debts of Rodnik. In addition, the former leaders of the company Vyacheslav Dormidontov and Alexander Grinkevich must reimburse the bankrupt for more than 888 million rubles. losses. The alleged beneficiary of the plant Alexander Mileev and his wife Lyubov Mileeva were not involved in the crisis at the Rodnik IC, whose debts reached 2 billion rubles.

The creditors of OOO Samara Combine Rodnik managed to hold the owner and former executives of the company liable for the company's debts. According to the court ruling on the claims of LLC Gradus, LLC ParitetGroup, the Federal Tax Service and the bankruptcy trustee of Rodnik Marat Biktimirov, the co-owner of the organization Pavel Smetana, LLC Kristall-Lefortovo controlled by him and LLC RegionBusinessContact were brought to subsidiary liability . Pavel Smetana and both companies were also declared bankrupt. Earlier, the co-owner of Rodnik had already been brought to subsidiary liability as part of the bankruptcy of the parent company of the Kristall Lefortovo holding, OOO GK Kristall Lefortovo. The reason for the collapse of the holding was financial difficulties due to the bankruptcy of the distribution company Status Group. Status's creditors forwarded their claims to Pavel Smetana's holding companies, including Rodnik, which had already been on the verge of bankruptcy several times before. Last year, the Industrial District Court of Kursk put Pavel Smetana on the wanted list in a criminal case on non-payment of 319 million rubles. taxes by the Kursk structure of the Kristall-Lefortovo Group of Companies.

In addition, 888 million rubles. Vyacheslav Dormidontov and Alexander Grinkevich must compensate the bankrupt Samara enterprise for losses. Mr. Dormidontov is a deputy of the Samara Provincial Duma and a former top manager of Ecostroyresurs LLC, a regional operator for the treatment of MSW. The representatives of all the defendants in court opposed the satisfaction of the creditors' claims. The court did not find the beneficiary of Rodnik, Deputy Chairman of the Samara Provincial Duma Alexander Mileev and his wife Lyubov Mileeva, who previously owned a stake in the companies.

• SK Rodnik LLC was registered in 2013. The main activity of the company is the production of alcoholic beverages. The owners of the organization are Pavel Smetana (declared bankrupt in 2019), who bought out a share from Lyubov Mileeva in 2016, and IC Rodnik itself (previously the share belonged to Aktiv JSC). In 2018, Pavel Smetana accused Aktiv of withdrawing the plant's assets. In the same year, bankruptcy proceedings began at the enterprise. The total debt of the plant exceeded 2 billion rubles.

Ekostroyresurs also failed to be held liable, where, according to creditors, the plant's assets were eventually withdrawn through a chain of transactions.

As Vladimir Shalaev, partner of Pravovaya Group LLC, explains, the amount of subsidiary liability will be determined after the end of the calculations. APMO lawyer Denis Frolov adds that in a situation where settlements with creditors are not completed, it is impossible to determine the amount of subsidiary liability, since it is determined to the nearest ruble or kopeck: liability will be considered later, when all activities are completed and creditors are settled. After that, the amount of subsidiary liability will be determined. In addition, defendants may challenge the decision of the Arbitration Court in higher instances. So far, the bankruptcy estate of the debtor is replenished mainly due to the sale of assets. So, last month, the receivables of IC Rodnik were sold at an auction in the amount of more than 5 billion rubles, but they managed to bail out a little – 7 million rubles. The buyer was Dmitry Balkin. Among the debtors is Aktiv, the ex-owner of the share of Rodnik, with a debt of 1 billion rubles. and “RegionBusinessContact”, which did not return about 800 million rubles. The owner of “Active” is JSC “Volzhskiye prostory”, specializing in agriculture. The owner of the Volga expanses is Mikhail Kandrashin. Vyacheslav Dormidontov is on the list of former leaders of Aktiv.
