4
Q: My eviction notice and tenancy contract will come to an end on 5 May 2024. The reason for eviction is "renovation".
The landlord has not submitted any supporting documents to show that the property will be unlivable during the renovation or any approval from Dubai Municipality.
I went to the Trustee Center in Al Manara and they said that I can't open a case against the eviction until after the expiry, however, that doesn't seem right.
I need advice, please.
Thank you

Landlord sent an eviction notice for renovation. Is it legal if they plan to sell?


2
Q: Hi everyone,
Glad to have found this platform. I’ve been searching for answers and haven't found anything concrete online.
I am renting an apartment in Dubai, and my landlord sent me an eviction notice more than 12 months before the end of my contract. The reason for eviction is “renovation”.
I tried to negotiate a renewal, but he clarified verbally that he would renovate the apartment and sell it afterward. My question is if this is legal since the intention is to sell the apartment and not just renovate it.
Will I be able to sue him if he sells the apartment?
Appreciate your responses.
Thanks!

Landlord is evicting me for renovation. When must he show proof?



2
Q: Dear Sir/Madam,
My landlord had originally said that I could stay in the villa during the minor renovation (inside) and construction of a new building outside.
He put it in writing and agreed that the tenancy value of the property would not increase significantly for two years based on these improvements.
I then received an eviction notice due to renovation. I have lived in the same villa for 18 years. My question is:
At what point does the landlord need to have the attested Dubai Municipality report to show that the planned renovation makes the property uninhabitable, as this has not been shown anywhere yet?

My rent cheque was bounced, and my landlord filed a case against me in Sharjah Court. I received a fine of 2,000 AED, which was later reduced to 1,000 AED upon appeal.

I have been here for 3 years now and paid the increased amount (as per the agreement) for the 4th year.

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.

Can I request reopening a civil case if the judgment was in my absence due to sending notices to the wrong address? 0
Lawyers misunderstood my question. Please read carefully and then guide me.
Case Type: Civil Case
Claim amount: 400,000
Paid: 65,000
Reason: Commercial agreement of supply
Emirate: Ajman
This case was registered in 2022. The judgment was in my absence, as notices were sent to the wrong address.
I was sent to jail. I made a down payment, bailed, and paid some more amount as installments. The total paid amount is AED 65000.
Now, again, an arrest warrant is issued as I did not pay the remaining 335,000 of the claim.
According to me, I had to pay only this amount because the executioner made a wrong claim, not as per the genuine claim.
So I want to reopen the case file.
I want the court to reinvestigate and start the case from scratch.
1) How can I make that request?
2) What documents are required?
3) Chances of reopening of case?
4) Cancellation of arrest warrant
Please guide me in detail, as I will do everything myself, as I cannot afford a lawyer right now.

If a bank has filed an execution cheques case through the Dubai Courts. Is a travel ban automatically applied? 0
A bank has filed an execution cheques case through the Dubai Courts due to nonpayment of a personal loan and credit card.
Is a travel ban automatically applied?
I looked on the Dubai Courts website, and it says the judge has issued a “reserved” order for my case.
Furthermore, when the bank emails, they threaten me with a travel ban. So I am assuming there is no travel ban issued (but I don’t know). I haven’t received any notice of a travel ban.
If there is a travel ban, how do I find out?
I have checked the Dubai police app, and there are no financial crimes against me.
Please advise if you know.
