## Basis
- [Law No. 11.101/2005 (Planalto, in Portuguese)](https://www.planalto.gov.br/ccivil_03/_ato2004-2006/2005/lei/l11101.htm): Art. 66, item I, establishes that the conclusion of judicial recovery depends on the judicial administrator submitting account statements within 30 days; Art. 154, caput, sets the same deadline for submitting accounts in bankruptcy after the conclusion of asset realization.

## How it applies
The 30-day deadline applies in two distinct scenarios:
1. Judicial recovery: After the approval of the plan or its conclusion, the judicial administrator must submit account statements for fee clearance (Art. 66, I).
2. Bankruptcy: After the conclusion of asset realization and distribution to creditors, the judicial administrator submits the accounts to the judge within the same deadline (Art. 154).

## Limits
- The 30-day deadline does not apply to the submission of interim reports or partial accounts, which follow different deadlines as provided in Law 11.101/2005 (e.g., Art. 23, § 1º, for reports not submitted on time).
- Fee clearance depends not only on the submission of account statements but also on the approval of the report by the judge (Art. 66, I).
- In cases of removal of the judicial administrator, the substitute must submit accounts within 10 days (Art. 31, § 2º), but this does not change the deadline for fee clearance of the predecessor.
- Any subsequent changes to Law 11.101/2005 (e.g., Law 14.112/2020) should be verified in the updated text on Planalto.
