Bankruptcy as a crime[edit]

Bankruptcy, being a form of abuse, was usually charged as a crime in almost all European countries before 1870. How do you suggest to code a penalty when a person has fallen upon such indictment, if you consider that 'personal bankruptcy' is not a crime, whereas 'bankruptcy actually is a legal status?Verbex (talk) 07:33, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it may be that bancruptcy was a crime in 1870 in some contries. So we could either create another item for the "old" crime definition, or we add attributes describing enddate and country. But I think it's no good idea to define it as a crime in general. -- Gerd Fahrenhorst (talk) 08:44, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
