Argentina (AR) — civil law.

Nothing on this page describes United States practice. There is no certificate sold to an investor, no administrative sale, and no post-sale redemption window in Argentina. If you arrived carrying US assumptions, read falsos-amigos first.

Casos

One decision per page. Every case on this wiki has been traced to a retrieved source, with court, parties and date. Hallucinated case law is the single worst failure mode a legal reference can have, and an Argentine citation that cannot be verified is flagged needs_verification rather than written down.

Constitutional / structural

  • afip-c-intercorp-2010 — CSJN, 2010. A tax authority may not seize assets without judicial intervention. The decision behind the proposition that everything in Argentina is judicial.

Effects of a subasta on the buyer

  • servicios-eficientes-c-yabra-1999 — CNCiv. en pleno, 1999. The buyer is relieved of pre-possession impuestos, tasas y contribuciones where the price does not cover them — but not of expensas comunes. The most operationally important decision on this wiki.

Under construction

Priority clusters for the case library, to be built one retrieved opinion at a time:

  • CSJN and provincial superior-court decisions on nulidad de subasta — defective edictos, notice failure, misdescription.
  • Decisions on the effect of payment after the auction but before the auto de aprobación — the contested window in purga-y-el-limite-temporal.
  • Provincial constitutional challenges to fiscal agents’ powers in apremio, testing how far Intercorp reaches into provincial practice.
  • Expensas and propter rem obligations after the CCyC replaced Ley 13.512.
  • Concurso/quiebra intersections with pending ejecuciones under Ley 24.522.
  • Consumer-protection doctrine in ejecución hipotecaria against a family home.
