How long will the jail term be when the bank files a case against me?

My bank managed to get a civil case filed against me without my knowledge and an execution order is raised for the judgment to pay AED 140000.

How long could the jail term be?

There is no jail in the cases of the cheques now, maybe they can get an arrest warrant order.

Dear Questioner,

There is no specific term for jail in civil cases, unlike criminal cases.

So I suggest making requests to the court like an installment plan, removing the travel ban, or stopping the execution temporarily to avoid joining jail.

For more details, we can assist you with all the procedures. Please contact us on phone.

Imprisonment or payment and there is no jail time.
