SECTION 34

The competent court shall fix provisionally the date of insolvency, failing which it shall be deemed to be the date of the court’s finding. The date of insolvency may not precede the decision to commence proceedings by more than eighteen months. The competent court may modify, within the limits fixed in the preceding paragraph, the date of insolvency by a finding made after the decision to commence proceedings. A petition to have the date of insolvency fixed on a date other than that fixed by the decision to commence proceedings or by a latter decision shall be inadmissible after the expiration of the time for filing appeal provided for under Article 88 below. As from that day, the date of insolvency shall no longer be changed.
