الزوجة ترفض العودة إلى بيت الزوجية. ما الحل؟


6
س: السلام عليكم،
زوجتي تحمل إقامة غير مصرح لها بالعمل. منذ تقريبًا سنة قدمت على عمل وقُبلت وطلبت مني شهادة لا ممانعة لصاحب العمل وأنا أعطيتها إياها.
بعد ذلك، حصل بيني وبين زوجتي خلافات كثيرة أدت بها مؤخرًا للخروج من المنزل واستئجار شقة وأخذت ابنتي. لم أكن راضٍ طبعًا ولكنني وافقت لها تحسبًا مني أن الأمور سوف تهدأ وتعود للمنزل ونتصالح.
ولكن وبعد شهر وأنا أحاول أن أقنعها أن ترجع لمنزلنا، فإنها تصر على تجديد عقد الشقة المفروشة.
سؤالي: هل يمكنني إلغاء مهنتها أو إقامتها وإجبارها على العودة لبلدنا؟ أم ماذا يمكنني فعله؟

Can I claim compensation for emotional distress and pregnancy loss? 0
Good afternoon,
A gentleman insulted me severely over the phone during a delicate moment in my life when I was pregnant. He conveyed harsh messages through chat, causing me to feel sick, panicked, and scared.
Unfortunately, I lost my baby after this incident. I have reported the matter to the police and won the case, leading to the confiscation of his phone and imposition of a fine.
However, I believe I deserve compensation for the mistreatment. Can I pursue damages, and if so, what amount can I claim for my loss and damage?

Can my company make my position redundant and hire somebody else after I was terminated? 0
My company terminated my employment because it was making the position I held redundant.
I was advised that in no way was this performance-related but purely a restructuring exercise.
However, within 1 month of leaving the company, they have externally recruited another person to fill my exact position, with the same job title, that they made redundant.
Whilst I believe that this is unethical behavior, could anyone tell me if this is legal within the UAE or should I lodge a complaint for unfair dismissal?

The public prosecution appealed a judgment to increase the fine I already paid. What do I do now? 0
Good afternoon,
Thank you for your time.
The public prosecution appealed my judgment (a fine that I satisfactorily cleared) and requested increasing the fine.
Can you please explain what happens during a criminal case appeal hearing for me as a defendant?
Will I be asked questions?
Is the hearing just for the Public Prosecution to present their appeal to the judge, and I do not need to give a response?
Thank you again for your time.

I purchased an apartment, but the previous landlord refuses to vacate. What to do? 0
Hello,
I bought an apartment, but the previous landlord is refusing to vacate it. The contract clearly states that the landlord should hand over the apartment on the day of the transfer.
Out of courtesy, I gave him three days to vacate so he could find a new place to stay, but the time has passed, and he is still refusing to vacate and hand it over.
What should I do in this case?
