In order for a corporation to file an assignment in bankruptcy the Board of Directors must pass a resolution allowing one/some of the officers to do so.

This site is devoted to personal bankruptcy questions – if you’d like any further information I suggest you contact one of our trustees directly or a lawyer familiar with insolvency law.
