Q: The requirement for Emarati Advocate to register Commercial Cassation at High Court. There is an existing old law that states that only a registered Emarati Lawyer can register a Cassation lawsuit at the High Court for the 3rd level of the litigation. However, recently I was informed that there was a new resolution that allows a litigant to register a cassation lawsuit without presenting the POA in favor of an Emarati Advocate. If this is true, can you inform the resolution number? Please confirm if current Civil procedures demand an Emarati Advocate for Cassation lawsuit, or has that requirement been removed and now litigants can register their own Cassation lawsuits just like they can register First Instance and Appeal Lawsuits. PS: I also need to hire a lawyer for a new Commercial lawsuit. Please inform me of your phone number and I will call you. Thank you!

Q: Dear sir/madam, I had a long drawn-out legal case for fraud/embezzlement between 2014-2015. The final judgment was 3 months in jail + deportation. I have since left the UAE. It is a complicated case that was running concurrently in 2 countries. It has since been resolved/settled out of court. My question is with new evidence, can a case be reopened? What are the requirements for reinvestigation in the case?

Q: Dear Sir/Madam, Can I appeal higher than the Abu Dhabi Cassation Court? The court has ruled that I am not entitled to a custodian housing allowance because I obtained khula, but this is against the law. Housing is a component of alimony and cannot be forfeited as it belongs to the child. What are my options now?

Q: My wife left the house with my small baby without any reason. She took all the gold and everything. Now she is putting cases against me, asking for huge amounts of money and claiming that she doesn’t have a marital home, whereas I am alone living in my four-bedroom townhouse. I need advice as she is getting execution against me claiming house, maid money, and alimony money. I have put appeal. Still need advice.

Q: Is it possible to register a Cassation lawsuit against a verdict of "Appeal to Commercial Execution"? I registered an "Appeal to Commercial Execution" lawsuit. I am not happy with the verdict since I feel it has an error of interpretation and implementation of the law. What can I do? Is it possible to register a Cassation lawsuit? Is it possible to meet the Honorable Appeal judge? Is there any other way to contest the verdict of an "Appeal to Commercial Execution"?

Q: Dear Lawyers, Can I file my submission once a criminal case is reserved for judgment?

Q: Dear Lawyers, In a Personal Status appeal case, do I need to upload the WhatsApp messages or evidence of abuse from my ex-husband again into the court system, even though I had already uploaded them in the previous case? Or should I only upload the receipts and invoices that show the expenses for which I disagreed with the amount or the judge's final decision?

Q: Hello, There was a criminal order against my wife and me in Ajman for two years, along with a hefty fine and deportation. We appealed, and today was the hearing for the appeal. The judge did not listen to us verbally; he simply stated that we had submitted our defense paper. We confirmed this, but I told him that the previous judge had not read our defense paper and requested that he read it this time. He scheduled a ruling date for next month. What should I expect in the appeal court? Will the judge review my defense paper or ignore it like the first-instance court and issue a similar judgment? If the appeal court reviews our defense paper, we should receive full acquittal. I would appreciate detailed replies on all possible outcomes, what the judges might do, and what to expect next.
