Summary/Abstract: The article debates the capacity of the shareholders of a liquidated company to succeed that company in the civil side of the criminal case. Such an aspect is of an upmost importance since settling the civil claim and granting satisfaction to the prejudiced party constitutes one of the goals of the criminal procedure. The article analyses the consequences of terminating the prejudiced legal entity prior to the ruling in a criminal case form both a criminal procedure perspective and a commercial law one and argues that a fair solution can only be obtained if the right party is compensated for the suffered prejudice.
