2
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.

Is it mandatory to visit the CID in person to update my records? 2
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!

How can the heirs of a deceased person distribute his shares if there is a minor? 1
My father died recently. We are Muslim residents in Dubai. I have siblings including a minor who is 16 years old. My father has land and vehicles under his name.
If I am applying for inheritance, does the minor need to have a share in ALL the properties and vehicles or can she be given a particular property/vehicle?
Secondly, if we want the land to be in her name, and she manages it (like renting and bank), does it require an adult?
Can the vehicles be transferred to someone else’s name without including her?
Your guidance will be very much appreciated.

Senior executive unfairly dismissed: How much compensation to claim? 2
Dear Sir/Madam,
I have been unfairly dismissed (it's personal on their end) and have been given only two months' salary apart from the compulsory gratuity and notice pay.
I would like to claim more than two months as I am a senior executive (Director).
Up to how much should I claim, and would this be a realistic amount for me to "win"?

Can we file a claim against an employee if he caused a financial loss to the company? 2
There was a legal action against an employee who failed to participate in an international event in Saudi Arabia due to a family issue that resulted in a travel ban, which in turn led to the non-signing of an AED 100,000 deal resulting in a loss to the company.
- What legal grounds exist for the employer to pursue legal action against the employee in this scenario?
- Does UAE labor law provide any specific guidance or remedies for such situations?
- What are the desired outcomes or remedies the employer can seek through legal action?
- Are there any potential legal consequences or liabilities for the employer in pursuing this case?
- What documentation and evidence are needed to support the employer's case?

What are my options if my husband is refusing to pay child support? 1
Dear Sir/Madam,
What are the charges to open an execution file in Sharjah for a divorce case and how much time will it take to execute the court order?
My husband told the court that he does not have money to pay for me and my daughter's expenses because he is earning a minimum amount in which he can only survive.
In that case, what can I do?
He closed all his bank accounts and sent money to his parents in India. He also told me that he will show in court that he does not have a job or money, so the court or police cannot do anything to him.
Can you please guide me on what I can do in this case? I do not have any proof of his salary or bank account because he was not informing me about anything related to his financial matters.
In fact, he was forcing me to ask my parents to send money to us. Because of no proof, the court agreed with him and rejected my appeal. I do not have a job and I am struggling for basic expenses.
Can I request the court to inquire about his gratuity and end of service?
Or can the court ask him to submit proof of the money that he received from his company, as he was working for 30 years in the same company?
