Bankruptcy proceedings have officially been initiated against Slovenia's Adria Airways following its cessation of operations.
Documentation issued by the district court in the city of Kranj gives creditors three months, until 3 January 2020, to declare claims against the operator.
It names Janez Pustaticnik as the manager.
Adria's latest operating licence, issued in 2011, has been revoked by the Slovenian civil aviation agency and the carrier banned from operating commercial air transport.
Star Alliance has also confirmed, as a matter of formality, that Adria Airways has left the airline group as a result of the bankruptcy.
Adria ceased to be a member of Star on 2 October, the alliance says. It says the situation is a "regrettable development", given that Adria has been a member for 15 years.
But Star points out that its links with Slovenia are being maintained by new services from Lufthansa, Swiss and Brussels Airlines.
