The problem here is that if you've only got the order of 20% to 25% of what you owe, it only takes a small proportion of creditors to say "No, I insist that you pay me in full" to torpedo the whole thing. Presumably that (plus the general mendaciousness and shadiness of the people involved) is probably why the court hasn't been taking the idea very seriously.
Not disagreeing, just observing that the "concrete" debts (salaries, contractors, landlord, etc.), if any, must be much less than the remining assets. So these could get paid in full by liquidation.
I stil don't know how the clients will be handled by the liquidation court. Will they be considered normal creditors, together with contractors and competing with them; or will they be considered a lower priority class?
