Dear Lawyer, We are 18 landowners 200 yards each entered into a development agreement with a builder on 2/2014. Then conditions are that the builder in his share of 50:50 can construct flats and sell. With a GPA fraudulently obtained, 18 months time with a grace period of 6 months to complete and handover fully furnished the flats. In case of delay, a rent of 6000 per month and 3 lakhs refundable deposit are to be paid to each landowner. The builder neither handed over the flats (60% built) nor paying rent or deposit of 3 lakhs. Electricity meters are fixed on our name and we are all paying minimum charges. The builder is not responding to our phone calls nor attending meetings whenever called for. The builder sold his share of flats. Please advise me the best. L.

I would like a quote for the following documents: - IP Assignment Agreement - Software Development Agreement - Independent Contractor Contract - Client Agreement

هل هناك مانع من رفع دعوى مدنية بخصوص شيك مرتد ومن ثم التقدُّم ببلاغ لدى الشرطة؟ أي هل سلوك الطريق المدني لا يُسقِط حقي في توقيع العقوبة على الشخص الذي وقَّع على الشيك؟ سبب السؤال أن الشركة التي أصدرت الشيك بدون رصيد صدر قرار من الدولة لوقف اتخاذ إجراءات جزائية ضدها مؤقتًا؛ لذلك أريد أن أسلك الطريق المدني ثم الجزائي لاحقًا.

1- هل تُقبَل شكوى أو دعوى شخص عن واقعة سب وقذف إلكتروني (عن طريق استخدام وسيلة تقنية المعلومات) بعد مرور أكثر من 3 أشهر؟ 2- في حال أنها رُفِعت للمحكمة وحُكِم بالبراءة في مرحلة الاستئناف من التهمة، فهل يحق لي المطالبة بالتعويض عن الأضرار الناتجة عن هذه الدعوى؟ 3- هل المطالبة بالتعويض تتم في نفس الجلسة أم برفع دعوى أخرى؟

Hello, I am leasing a villa in Dubai since July 2020. Along with the Ejari contract, I have also signed an addendum with the landlord stipulating that I need to inform him at least 90 days prior to contract expiry of my wish to either renew the contract or vacate the unit. The notice deadline has passed and I have not informed the landlord of my wish to renew my contract. Some days ago (after the notice deadline), the landlord wrote, requesting to vacate the unit upon expiry of my contract, as he will be selling the unit. The Dubai law stipulates that any non-renewal notice should be given 90 days prior to contract expiry. At the same time, I did not comply with the requirement in the addendum to inform the landlord of my wish to extend. What will apply in this case? Can the landlord use the addendum as a basis or will the Dubai law prevail and the contract will be "auto-renewed"? Thank you for your help!
