Notes

Short explainers on the records this practice works with, written from the same sources the files are prepared from.

What closes an ECB summons

A summons closes on two tracks, not one: the penalty track and the correction track. Both have to be resolved, and the second is the one firms miss.

Paying a summons does not close it

Payment settles what is owed. It does not certify that the condition was corrected, and the summons stays on the record until a Certificate of Correction is approved.

The Debt Demolisher amnesty window

For 90 days, eligible ECB judgments can be settled with default penalties and interest waived. The window closes January 10, 2027, and the exclusions decide who it helps.
