Verbatim from the Royal Gazette / Office of the Council of State
English translation
A liquidator who was not appointed by the court may be removed from office and another appointed in that person's place, where the partners vote unanimously to that effect or the general meeting of shareholders so resolves. The court may remove a liquidator from office and appoint another in that person's place, whether or not the liquidator was appointed by the court, on the application of any one of the partners of the partnership, or of shareholders of the company holding together shares amounting to one twentieth of the paid-up capital of the company.
