Q: Hi,
We entered a contract as a trading company to supply goods to a client in Europe from the supplier company in Vietnam. Terms of sales were FOB. The supplier in Vietnam did not perform and deliver the goods to the client's forwarder.
We have filed a civil case in Vietnam against the supplier to refund the payment made to them or provide the goods. The amount is USD 800,000.
The end client in Europe is threatening to file a case against us in the UAE even though they are fully aware that we have transferred all funds to the Vietnam company.
Under good faith, we kept them updated but now they are impatient and want to recover the money from us saying their contract is with our company and have nothing to do with the supplier in Vietnam.
My queries:
1. Can we place a defence if a civil case is filed against us.
2. What are our rights to defend?

Can I use my baggage allowance to ship my luggage by cargo?
Q: Dear Sir/Madam,
My contract mentions that the employee is entitled to excess XXkg of baggage claim or air/sea/land shipment of equivalent cost.
Does this mean that I can convert this to bring my luggage using cargo as long as it does not exceed the same rate as air travel?

Missing business partner since 2003. What to do about his share in the LLC?
Hello,
I am a manager of an LLC company with 25% share. In February 2003, a partner joined the company with a 25% share.
After two months, he didn’t like the company and left. After two years, we did not know where he was. We just heard that he left to Tunisia before his visa expired.
What to do with his 25% share, please?

My company has filed a case against a client for failure to pay and bounced cheque. How to follow up?
Hello.
My company has filed a case against a client for failure to pay and a bounced cheque. The client's company is registered as a virtual office in the Creative City Free Zone in Fujairah, so our case is filed there.
The client basically purchased some equipment from us, and his payment via bank transfer did not go through and was rejected. Then, when we deposited his security cheque after multiple attempts to contact and no answer, the cheque bounced.
The company is under his wife's name, and we have filed a case on the same.
The court has accepted our application, however, they have instructed the execution bureau to get the Emirates ID of this authorised signatory. The bureau is asking us to get it, and we have no way to do so, unfortunately.
Without the Emirates ID, the court cannot freeze the bank accounts or put a travel ban, etc.
What are our options here?

I received a legal notice to pay rent and cleared the amount. Can the landlord ask me to pat late fees penalty?
I received a legal notice to pay rent.
I have already cleared the amount specified in the legal notice, but my landlord is now saying that I also need to clear further late fees as per our contract within the legal notice time period.
Is that valid if it is not stated in the notice?
