Police report is crucial before issuing a replacement of a lost cheque
5
Q: Hi,
I live in Abu Dhabi.
My landlord lost one of the rental cheques. I have a receipt and a Tawtheeq of when I handed them over to him.
I told him to go to the police and file a lost report and then I can issue a new cheque to him but he states that this will take too much time.
He suggests that he gives me a paper saying that if they find the cheque they will return it to me and to give them a new cheque.
Please note that it's a company managing my landlord's properties.
Please advise

فقدان دفتر الشيكات واستخدام شخص آخر له


1
س: السلام عليكم،
تركت الإمارات في عام ٢٠١١ بدون أي مشاكل خلفي، ولكن نسيت دفتر الشيكات الخاص بي مع شخص وللأسف استخدمه في عامي ٢٠١٣ و٢٠١٤.
صدر تعميم على اسمي بناءً على قيمة شيكات بمبلغ مليون ونصف تقريبًا. الشيء الأكيد هو أن التوقيع ليس توقيعي والنص الموجود على الشيكات ليس خطي. هل لذلك مخرج قانوني يُثبت براءتي؟

What does Cabinet Resolution No. 1 of 2022 mean with exempting supervisory roles from the provisions of the Labour Law? 0
Dear colleagues,
According to Article 15 of Cabinet Resolution No. 1 of 2022 (“Executive Regulations”), employees occupying supervisory roles are exempt from the provisions of the Labour Law and the Executive Regulations in relation to maximum working hours only if they possess powers equivalent to those of the employer.
Could you please clarify what is meant by "if they possess powers equivalent to those of the employer"?
Currently, we have heads of departments who report to the directors. Will they be eligible for overtime?
Also, those who have a POA to sign contracts will they be eligible?
Or, those who temporarily replace the CEO while he is out, will they be eligible?

View allالضمانات التي تحصل عليها شركة التمويل مقابل إعطاء قرض 0
حصلت على قرض شخصي وكريدت كارد من مؤسسة للتمويل بإجمالي ٥٠ ألف وتعثرت لفترة والآن يطالبونني بدفع مبلغ ٢٠٠ ألف درهم بالفوائد وكنت أعطيتهم شيك بقيمة ٤٢ ألف وقتها.
سؤالي:
هل يوجد سند لأمر داخل عقد القرض (الأبليكيشن) الخاص بالشركة التي وقعت معها في البداية؟
أم لا يملكون ضمانًا آخر يُمكِّنهم من مقاضاتي به سوى الشيك الذي أعطيته لهم فقط؟
مع جزيل الشكر!

تقديم دعوى ضد مقاول استلم دفعتين من المال وأوقف العمل 0
هناك مشكلة مع مقاول إذ اتفقنا على بناء ملحق داخل منزل خاص ووقعنا العقد واستلم أول دفعة.
اشتغل حسب العقد واستلم الدفعة الثانية وأوقف العمل ويرفض المواصلة. تبين لي بعدما حاولت أن أقدم شكوى ضده أنه يستخدم ختم وعقد لشركة منتهية في سنة 2013 ولا يوجد لديه أي ترخيص.
كيف أستطيع أن أشكوه وبنفس الوقت أواصل البناء؟
