1
Q: Hi,
I received a 30-day legal notice for missed rent on 26th Jan. I transferred the rent to the landlord by 7th Feb. I have communication from him that it was received.
The subsequent months up until March were all paid and acknowledged by the landlord. A couple of weeks before renewal, he tried to increase the rent from 56k to 70k.
On the contract renewal date, I filed an offer and renewal case, which the landlord did not respond to. On 8th May, he filed a case of First Instance stating he was still owed rent from the previous contract, which was already paid and acknowledged.
I then uploaded the documents, but in English, and the decision went in his favor. Can I still appeal this enforcement?

التعامل مع الشيك المرتجع المدفوع للإيجار


2
س: قمت بإصدار شيكين ضمان للشقق منذ 3 سنوات. ثم فقدت عملي وفشلت في دفع بعض الإيجارات. قام بفتح قضية جنائية باستخدام شيك الضمان الفارغ (كتب المالك مبلغ 270 ألف درهم إماراتي في الشيك).
بالإضافة إلى ذلك، فتح المالك قضية في مركز تسوية المنازعات الإيجارية. وبما أنني مقيم الآن لما يزيد عن الثلاث سنوات بعد انتهاء فترة الإقامة المسموح لي بها، فقد كنت أرغب في الاستفادة من العفو عن طريق الاستسلام للشرطة ومواجهة قضيتين جنائيتين.
ماذا سيحدث لي إذا سلمت نفسي للشرطة وهناك قضية حكم فيها بالسجن لمدة سنة؟
هل يمكنني الطعن في المحكمة ضد الحكم بالسجن لمدة سنة واحدة من خلال الاستعانة بمحامٍ ودفع غرامات؟
هل سيتم حرماني بسبب القضية / الشكوى المقدمة إلى مركز المنازعات الإيجارية؟
هل القضية المدنية مختلفة عن القضايا المذكورة أعلاه المرفوعة ضدّي؟
هل سأدفع مبالغ إضافية مقابل البقاء لفترة أطول من المسموح بها حتى ولو كان السبب في ذلك هو القضايا الجنائية المرفوعة ضدّي؟
ما هي الخطوات أو الإجراءات التي يجب اتخاذها لحل هذه المشكلة؟
الرجاء المساعدة

كيف يمكن إثبات دفع الإيجار وإخلاء العقار ضد القضية التي رفعها المالك؟
1
س: مرحبًا،
كنا نقيم في شقة صغيرة مقابل إيجار شهري وتم إخلاؤها في 31 يناير 2021. لقد دفعنا الإيجار بالكامل ولكن للأسف، ليس لدينا أي دليل على دفع الشهور نوفمبر وديسمبر ويناير.
الآن رفع المالك قضية ضدنا ويدعي أننا ما زلنا نقيم في العقار ولا ندفع لهم الإيجار. لقد أرسلنا لهم إشعار بالإخلاء عبر البريد الإلكتروني الخاص بي (غير المسجل في السجلات) مع إرفاق البريد الإلكتروني الخاص بزوجي.
لم نكن نعلّم أن الوثيقة التي وقعناها هي اتفاقية فرعية لأننا لم نر عقدًا من قبل. وبناءً على ذلك، قاموا برفع قضية ضدنا وسيتم فرض غرامة وإيجار علينا إذا تم تسجيل القضية.
لدينا جلسة استماع للتسوية ولكن المالك لا يوافق على التسوية لأنه يطلب منا التوقيع على نموذج رئيسي ينص على أننا أخلينا العقار للتو في التاريخ الحالي.
نحن بحاجة إلى السفر بشكل عاجل. هل سيتم فرض منع من السفر علينا؟
نريد تسوية القضية حتى لو سافرنا.
يرجى تقديم المشورة.

How to penalize a landlord for cutting off AC despite an RDC ruling in the tenant's favor? 0
Hello,
My Dubai landlord (Omani) switched off the AC cooling in my rented flat after demanding a rent increase of over 50%. Even after winning the case at RDC and renewing Ejari through the court, he still has not restarted the AC cooling.
I have sent emails and filed a police complaint, but it's getting hotter again, and the AC has been off since last October.
Please suggest how to penalize him as he disrespects UAE laws.

Unpaid agency commission without a signed agreement. Can email proof hold up in court? 0
Hi dear all,
This question concerns the payment of the agency commission. The commission agreement form was not signed, but there is indirect evidence — email correspondence in which it is confirmed that the 2% amount is intended for the agent’s commission.
In the end, the client refuses to pay, although the deal was completed.
How realistic is it to receive the commission through a court decision? And how long would such a case typically take?

Can the real estate company ask for 10% rent increase if the RERA rental index does not allow it? 0
I am residing in Al Nahda 2 area, and the real estate company is asking me for a 10% rent increase from last year. However, checking RERA, there is no increase in the rates in my area as checked today.
Once I told my real estate the same, they said it had to be checked 3 months ago from now. Also, the area they have shown in their RERA is Al Nahda 1, while I reside in Al Nahda 2.

عرض الجميعHow can I reverse the Bitcoin scam transation if I just lost everything in a flash loan attack? 0
DeFi was going to be the future of finance, open, trustless, unstoppable. I was completely on board, planting yields like some kind of digital Johnny Appleseed.
My collateral secured with Bitcoin was humming along on my favorite lending platform, earning me passive income while I slept. In came the flash loan attack.
One moment, I had six figures securely staked; the next, my positions were liquidated at the speed of regret. My loans, my collateral, my well-thought-out portfolio, poof.
Panic came faster than an Ethereum gas spike. I scanned Twitter, hoping it was FUD. Not a chance. Smart contract compromised. Funds stolen. The protocol team acted swiftly to do something, but damage was already done.

Hi,
I have been here for 3 years now and paid the increased amount (as per the agreement) for the 4th year.
However, the landlord did not send me back the signed contract, although I have both made the payment for the full year via bank transfer and sent my signed contract to him.
I need to renew my Ejari; however, how can I do it without the landlord's signature?
I have all the previous contracts signed by both parties, along with the Ejari for those contracts.

عرض الجميعI lost the appeal filed by my landlord. What can I do if he illegally keeps my last cheque and deposit? 0
I got RDSC judgment in my favor awarding termination of my lease from May 2024 to May 2025. The landlord made an appeal and lied about my request for termination on 4 December.
My lawyer didn't give any response so the landlord won the appeal. Recently, the Landlord asked for the keys back and said I have overstayed since 4 Dec for not returning the key.
He said he could cash my last rent cheque and wouldn't return the deposit. I gave him my friend's address and said to pick up the key from there but to return my deposit and last rent cheque but he does not agree.
He wants to keep the deposit.
