One or several members may file a shareholder derivative lawsuit after a notice to the competent bodies that remains unanswered within a time limit of thirty (30) days. Petitioners shall be entitled to seek redress for damages suffered by the company. In the event of conviction, damages shall be awarded to the company and not to the petitioner (s).
However, under penalty of inadmissibility of the request, the company shall be regularly cited through its legal representatives.
The company or any member may also petition the competent court to appoint an ad hoc agent to represent it in the lawsuit, where there is a conflict of interest between the company and its legal representatives.
