Abstract
Con carácter general, la competencia para convocar la
junta general de las sociedades de capital, sin la cual
por regla no puede constituirse válidamente,
corresponde al órgano de administración y queda en
principio sujeta a su discreción. No obstante, existen
ciertos casos en que la convocatoria de la junta es
obligatoria por ley o estatutos. En relación con estos
supuestos y para suplir la pasividad de los
administradores, la LSC atribuye a los socios la
posibilidad de dirigirse al Juzgado de lo Mercantil o al
Registro Mercantil para solicitar la convocatoria de
esas juntas. Al efecto se ha establecido una regulación
específica del proceso de convocatoria, que se ha
configurado como expediente de jurisdicción
voluntaria, confiado al letrado de la Administración de
Justicia, y como expediente registral, confiado al
registrador mercantil. Su regulación positiva, sin
embargo y a pesar de su relativa novedad, es
insuficiente, debería haber sido objeto de un
desarrollo más preciso, contiene soluciones
contradictorias y no supera de forma eficiente en
todos los casos las dificultades que en la práctica
puede plantear la implementación de la convocatoria
acordada por el Juzgado de lo Mercantil o el
registrador mercantil. En el texto se proponen y
desarrollan soluciones interpretativas para estas
deficiencias. --------------------
As a general rule, it falls to the board of directors of limited liability companies to call general shareholders’ meetings, a step which is necessary for them to be validly constituted and which is subject to the board’s discretion. However, in certain cases the calling of the general meeting is mandatory by law or under the company’s articles of association. In relation to these cases and in order to remedy any potential inaction by the directors, the Companies Law grants the shareholders the right to address the Commercial Court or the Commercial Registry to request that these meetings be called. For that purpose, the calling process has been specifically regulated either as a voluntary jurisdiction procedure, entrusted to the Court’s Clerk, or as a registrar’s procedure, entrusted to the Registrar of Companies. This regulation is insufficient despite its relative novelty. The regulation should have been developed more precisely, it contains inconsistent solutions and does not efficiently overcome the practical difficulties involved in calling meetings through the Commercial Court or the Registrar of Companies. This paper provides arguments to overcome such practical deficiencies
