Conclusion of the civil case. Castillero stated that the judgment execution phase ended with <doc id="pty-556-99-2018-12-05-a" /> of December 5, 2018, which directed the parties to set off any sums owed to each other, including dividends generated by the 33.3% of sequestered shares. The presiding judge at the time was Licenciada María Cedeño, who is no longer with the institution.
Release of bonds and archival. Following the close of execution, outstanding bonds were released to their beneficiaries through Order No. 1867-19 of August 8, 2019, canceling the surety contracts. Castillero recounted that BDT Investments, Inc. subsequently attempted to initiate enforcement proceedings at the Twelfth Circuit Civil Court but was informed there was nothing to report, as the execution had already concluded. The case file was transferred to the Judiciary's archives on January 5, 2021 (exit No. 201), where it was stored in bundle 852.
"A partir de allí, se llevaron a cabo actuaciones relacionadas con la liberación de las cauciones que se encontraban vigentes." (Page 2)
Practical effect: Castillero's testimony establishes that, from the civil court's perspective, the case is a terminated and archived proceeding with nothing outstanding to return or determine. This testimony is relevant to the criminal investigation <law id="pty-202300033850" /> because it confirms that the set-off obligation arising from <doc id="pty-556-99-2018-12-05-a" /> was never fulfilled despite the file being archived, supporting the theory of misappropriation by Juan Luis Bosch Gutiérrez.
