Q: I had a commercial cassation case in Dubai. The honourable court remanded the case back to the appeal court with a new tribunal.
My Question: Will the court automatically register a new appeal case for me? Or do I have to register a new appeal case myself?
I also need a lawyer to represent me in this case.
Thank you

How to appeal a case after losing it while its first appeal is rejected?

Q: My employee has filed a case against me. I lost the case.
The employee is claiming AED 54,000/- from the court. Dubai court has given a decision against me. In the "Petition for review - labor" section, I filed for an appeal which I lost again.
I need to appeal again in order to file a case as he has forged my signature and his salary was AED 2700/- and all salaries are paid while he is claiming that AED 50,000/= was paid by him as company expenses.

Res judicata issue for claiming the rest of unclaimed debt with a new case
0
Q: I gave a loan of AED 200,000 to a person. He gave me a letter acknowledging that he received 200,000 from me.
Later on, he gave me cheques for 100,000 and a letter stating that this was partial payment of a loan. The cheques bounced.
I made a court case and submitted the cheques and acknowledgment of partial payment.
I did not submit the letter acknowledging that the debtor received AED 200,000 from me.
I won a verdict for the 100,000 AED.
Later on, I started a court case for the remainder of AED 100,000. I submitted the letter acknowledging that the debtor received AED 200,000 from me.
I explained that I had already won the case for the first 100,000 and this was a lawsuit for the remainder of 100,000. I won the First Instance and the Appeal judgment.
Suddenly, the case was rejected by the Cassation Court. They wrote that my case for the second payment of AED 100,000 was a repeat of the first case of AED 100,000 and had already been judged
What can I do in such a circumstance?

بطبعه وطبيعته، كان القانون وما زال كائناً متطوراً وجسداً متجدداً، ولولا هذه الصفات فيه، لما حقق الغرض الذي من أجله خُلق ووُضع. وسمات التطور والتجدد ليست قاصرةً على فرع دون آخر، أو نوع من بين الأنواع، بل هي سمات ملحوظة في القانونين العام والخاص، وفي المجالين، الموضوعي والإجرائي.

View allCan a debt agency access AECB reports without consent for a 15-year-old closed case? 0
Dear Respected Lawyers,
Subject: Request for Legal Advice Regarding Unlawful Practices by a Debt Collection Agency
I would greatly appreciate your advice and guidance regarding a troubling issue my colleague is facing with a collection agency.
The company has been contacting the employer, urging them to ask my colleague to get in touch with them regarding a supposed liability.
This claim is related to a 15-year-old closed dispute with a bank credit card, and the issue seems to stem from outdated and inaccurate information on the AECB report.
Our main concerns are as follows:
Unauthorized Access: The company is accessing her AECB report without her consent. She has never given permission for them to retrieve or view her personal financial information.
How is it possible for a third-party agency to openly access and track AECB reports, especially for a dispute that was resolved 15 years ago?

I was evicted from my apartment to be sold but it was gifted and rented at a higher price. What can I do? 0
I was evicted from my apartment after living there for five years. My landlord informed me a year in advance that the lease would not be renewed because he intended to sell the property.
Prior to this, he attempted to impose a rent increase that was not compliant with RERA regulations, which I refused to accept. He then served me with an official Dubai Court eviction notice, citing the need to take back the property for sale.
Five months after I moved out, I discovered the property was rented out at a much higher price. Upon further investigation, I found that the ownership was transferred as a "Gift" rather than a sale.
This makes it seem like the eviction was only to raise the rent rather than a genuine need to sell.
Do I have a valid case for wrongful eviction against my landlord?
Also, under Dubai law, does transferring ownership as a "Gift" hold the same legal grounds as selling in justifying eviction?

I invested money in a business but my partner is removing me out from partnership. Can I pursue legal action? 0
Hi
I'm an Irish citizen and a resident of the United Kingdom. I got investment fraud in Dubai. I invested money into a business with a Pakistani national guy in March 2024 via bank transfer into his business account.
Now he's giving back the money which I invested in business after 9 months. He's preparing a letter from a local lawyer to kick me out of the business. I do not have any other option than to take out at least my money.
But it's unfair to me that he used my money in business and took all the advantage.
Some people say to me that if you claim money or take legal action against him, it will take too much time and I need to travel to Dubai to appear in court because it is a civil matter. But I'm not a resident.
How can I follow the civil case there?
That's why my partner knows that I can not do anything and this case keeps running long time and in the end nothing happens. But I'm thinking that I will submit a complaint through my embassy and I also have a solicitor in the United Kingdom.
