Q: Dear Madam,
I have a labour case with my previous employer (private company). It started approx 10 months back and court judgement came in favour of me. I am following up with the execution court to get my money.
As advised by them, a request was submitted to block the company trade license, letter to banks where the company holds an account was sent in order to transfer money to the court.
Question 1) How long will the procedure take to get my money? (Please note that its a private company and they are still working)
Question 2) Meanwhile I got an information that they are fabricating a false case against me to counter this stating that I didn't do my job properly and made a mistake that caused damages to the company. Will the court accept such cases? And what action shall I take in such case?
Your response will be highly appreciated.

The right way to register a case against a civil company to recover money



1
Q: A civil company owes me money. They issued written and signed acknowledgment of debt. I want to start a performance order lawsuit against the civil company.
Since it is a civil company, the law states that the manager and partner are liable from their personal assets in case the company cannot pay.
Question:
Should I register only the civil company as a respondent?
Or should I register two respondents in the lawsuit: the civil company as respondent 1 and the manager/partner as respondent 2?

How to file a performance order lawsuit against a company and its managers?



3
Q: A civil company that I had dealings with has 2 partners. Each partner is also the manager of the company.
The civil company had sent me a statement of account and a letter acknowledging a debt. They confirmed in writing that they will pay me AED 153,500 on 10th September 2021.
The letter is on the company's letterhead and has the sign of one of the two managers/partners of the company.
They did not pay me till now.
I wish to register a Payment Order/Performance Order (Amr Al Arida) lawsuit against the company since my right is unconditionally confirmed in writing.
QUESTION: Should I make the lawsuit only against the civil company as respondent, or should I also mention the two managers/partners as respondents i.e. a total of 3 respondents?
Please guide me.
Thank you.

Could the court have transferred the execution amount to an incorrect account?




1
Q: Good day,
It's driving me nuts, and I can't sleep. I'm just asking: is there a possibility that the court transferred the execution amount by mistake, or that Al Adheed entered a different IBAN for my case?
Will the court notice that the account is under a different name or something?
I haven't been sleeping, and nobody can give me a proper response.

View allAssistance with clearing a police case and lifting a travel ban in the UAE 0
Good day!
I have rental disputes and got a settlement plan 8 months ago.
But I did not pay the settlement because at the moment of applying for the settlement plan, I had a job offer and lost it because of the travel ban and the visa could not be processed.
I have another personal police case where I already paid an amount of 18,000 and the claim was 40,000 dirhams. Now that I did not continue paying, the plaintiff put the case again.
I have another offer letter now and I want to get a clearance certificate within 48 hrs, or else I might lose this job as well.
Kindly advise

I bought a new vehicle from the dealership with a hidden defect. What can I do? 0
I bought a new vehicle from the dealership [-----] and after 5 min of using the car, an alert popped up. Less than 24h later I informed the dealers of the issue.
After struggling with them about it, I finally brought the car to service at their company and they have confirmed the part needs to be fully changed.
I’m telling them I cannot accept a faulty car and demand either a refund or another vehicle. So far they’ve been less than cooperative.

How to know the judgment when the portal says "decided"? 0
Dear sir/madam,
There is a case against me in a commercial, full-jurisdiction court. Sorry if I'm getting this wrong. I have not participated in the case and on the advice of my UK lawyers, I have not been represented there in Dubai.
Upon checking the portal, it says a judgment was reached yesterday, but I can't see further details. So my questions are:
1) Do judgments happen behind closed doors or in front of the lawyers? (the plaintiffs have lawyers)
2) How long does it usually take for the verdict to be public and for me to see the outcome of the case?
The only thing it says online is the word "decided".

Is it mandatory to visit the CID in person to update my records? 0
Respected Advisors,
I have been involved in a few criminal cases since 2017, but all of them were cleared by this year. I have obtained release letters for all the cases from the public prosecution office through an online portal.
Recently, I also received my residence visa. After the visa process was completed, I applied for a PCC online. However, the request was rejected.
I contacted the 901 office, and they advised me to visit the CID. I arranged for a power of attorney to be granted along with all the necessary documents to update the system.
Twice I was told to come in person, but I am hesitant to do so because of my previous negative experience.
Could someone please advise me whether I must go in person or if the person holding the power of attorney can handle the process?
Thank you!
