He is not broke, former Arcandorchef Thomas Middellhoff had claimed, as he had to the end of July for a court date information about his financial situation – colloquially is also of bankruptcy talk. But because there are increasing doubts. According to a report by the news magazine “Der Spiegel” the former top manager had to give up his clock on 20 August at the Landgericht Essen. The clock – according to “mirror” a Piaget – will have a list price of 20,000 euros. A creditor, a Fund of Berlin housing company Gewobag, the Middelhoff owes almost a million euros to applicants for pocket attachment. It is not the first time: Even a few weeks ago had Middelhoff on the edge of ongoing legal proceedings a bag attachment to go through

The former Arcandor chief is currently under attack from many sides: he must stand trial in a breach of trust in food process. This involves, among other things, expensive flights with private jets and helicopters at the expense of the then already strongly lurching retail group Arcandor. A year ago Middelhoff was sentenced to the insolvency of the Department Store Group to pay 3.4 million euros because of the controversial bonuses. However, the liquidator calls for far more.

In addition, various creditors demand money from Middelhoff. Even the Troisdorf project developer Josef Esch and management consultant Roland Berger want from the former top managers money back. Middelhoff himself has repeatedly assured not to be broke – possibly currently not liquid. He still possess sufficient assets, such as disponer his family on fixed deposits amounting to millions at the Cologne Bankhaus Sal. Oppenheim. The Private Bank barrier on the other hand to release the funds, but he expected the problem solve soon.

What Middelhoff everything is accused

   





         
         What is it really in the processes, is involved in the Thomas Middelhoff?
         
         


         

     
         The number of civil and criminal proceedings, in the former Arcandor CEO Thomas Middelhoff is involved is barely manageable. The focus is on the process by which Middelhoff is in food as a defendant on suspicion of infidelity before the District Court. He is said to have the department store group (especially) damaged with private trips. In addition Middelhoff was summoned as a witness in the trial against the former leadership of the Kölner Bank Sal. Oppenheim at Cologne Regional Court, but refused largely the statement. Too great was probably a risk that he would have given ammunition against yourself for the process in food.
     
         

         



         
        What financial claims there are against him?
         
         


         

     
         Bailiffs used several times the attendance of the Manager, to confront him with millions claims former business partner or the Arcandor insolvency. The largest sum shall be required for the Karstadt insolvency: a total of almost 180 million euros.
     
         

         



         
        Why does the Arcandor insolvency money from Middelhoff?
         
         


         

     
         In one case it comes to bonuses, which is said to have collected at the department store wrongly Middelhoff. The judgment of the District Court of Essen, which the Administrator has awarded 3.4 million euros, currently located at the Higher Regional Court of Hamm in appeal. At the district court Hagen former manager has requested in return a payment order against the insolvency administration about 120 million euros, because he feels harmed by the allegations and lawsuits. In the much larger one of the two ex-Karstadt / Quelle process revolves around 175 million euros, which makes the insolvency law. This involves special bonuses and private flights. The district court gave him food in June 2012 but only in a small part of the blame right, but not yet quantified its claims. The Oberlandesgericht Hamm examines the appeal against it and has turned an expert.
     
         

         



         
         Who still makes claims against Middelhoff claim?
         
         


         

     
        The management consultant Roland Berger calls including interest 7.5 million from a previous joint project with Middelhoff and the investor Florian Manfred Lahnstein (son of the former SPD politician). Middelhoff recognized the claims only before a notary public - but now he makes counterclaims asserted. The real estate developer Josef Esch demands rent for a luxury yacht in the amount of 2.5 million euros. In both cases, bailiffs are already on. And the bank Sal. Oppenheim, who has frozen his assets of around 25 million euros wants another 50 million euros for loans with which Middelhoff turn bought Esch-Fund. He countered with claims of 200 million euros. In addition to be negotiated in November in the first instance court.
     
         

         



         
         And what Middelhoff has to do with the church-heirs?
         
         


         

      
         To make matters worse determines the Munich prosecutor against Middelhoff on suspicion of false statement in the billions dispute the Kirch heirs against the German bank. As almost the entire former head of Deutsche Bank up to the current co-CEO Jürgen Fitschen he allegedly gave false.
     
         

         
    <- END ->

 

humiliations were the former top managers last not spared. Stir his spectacular exit the Essenes courthouse ensured the end of July. To avoid prying questions from journalists, Middellhoff fled in his own words, "like a cat" from one of the rear located window in a rain pipe along, climbed up on the garage roof and then jumped from about three meters down the street.


             
         

not say more about

According to "mirror" is Middelhoff also under suspicion, under oath the truth about his wealth to have: The prosecutor food lying recently before a criminal complaint. With his financial information in late July Middelhoff have three watches specified, but the now repossessed Piaget was not among them. Whether he did it intentionally concealed or accidentally, is unclear. A spokeswoman for the court upheld the action, the court review the allegations.
