إلزام الشريك بتحمُّل مسؤولياته تجاه الالتزامات المالية للشركة

2
س: السلام عليكم،
سؤالي عن الديون المالية التي ترتبت على أحد الشركاء في مؤسسة ذات مسؤولية محدودة.
كان الهدف من الديون وقيمتها 200 ألف درهم تأسيس الشركة. الشركة بها شخصين (شركاء)؛ الشريك الأول أعطى شيك ضمان مقابل الدين للدائن.
استولى الشريك الثاني على مدخول الشركة وأبدى عدم استعداده للتعاون مع الشريك الأول لتسديد الالتزامات المترتبة على الشركة، بالإضافة إلى حكم من لجنة فض المنازعات الإيجارية بدفع قيمة إيجار سنة على الشركة.
كل ذلك يتحمله الشريك الأول حاليًا لأنه هو الذي قام بالاقتراض ووقّع عقد الإيجار مع المؤجر. قام الشريك الأول بإلغاء الرخصة التجارية بعد صدور حكم المحكمة بالتنفيذ لسداد قيمة شيك الضمان، وإلغاء الرخصة تم بعد صدور حكم لجنة فض المنازعات بفرض قيمة الإيجار على الشركة.
كيف يمكن للشريك الأول تقاسم هذه الأحكام والمقدّرة بـ 300 ألف درهم مع الشريك الثاني المتهرب من جميع تلك الالتزامات؟
وهل يمكن السير في إجراءات تصفية الشركة بعد إلغاء الرخصة التجارية؟
وهل يمكن إيقاف إجراءات تنفيذ قضية الشيك (الدين) لحين الانتهاء من تصفية الشركة؟
وشكرًا لكم!

صدر أمر حبس للمنفذ ضده ولم يُقبض عليه. ماذا أفعل؟

2
س: السلام عليكم،
تحية طيبة وبعد،
صدر أمر حبس على المنفَّذ ضده من قبل المحكمة المدنية للتنفيذ، ولكن لا يزال المنفَّذ ضده مطمئنًا في داره وفي كل مكان يذهب إليه لكونه يعلم جيدًا أن الشرطة لن تقبض عليه إلا في حال سفره أو ارتكابه جناية.
سؤالي: ماذا أفعل؟ وما الطلب الواجب تقديمه للقاضي لكي يُقبَض على المنفَّذ ضده جبرًا وفي منزله مثلاً حتى يتم إرجاع المبلغ المنفَّذ به في أسرع وقت؟
مع التقدير!

How can I remove a travel ban or avoid arrest if I left the UAE with an unpaid rent case? 0
In 2018, I was involved in a dispute concerning unpaid rent related to a property managed by [-----] under the jurisdiction of the Land Department. [----] proceeded with legal action, resulting in a civil case and the imposition of a travel ban.
A civil case had been reported in an Arabic-language newspaper. Not being fluent in Arabic, I missed the Land Department hearing, and the obvious outcome included an order for payment and a travel ban, but I had already left the country by that time.
questions:
Statute of Limitations: After how many years does such a civil case expire under UAE law, thereby allowing me to legally return to Dubai without facing arrest or enforcement actions?
International Travel: Am I currently at risk of arrest or extradition if I travel to non-GCC countries like India or Pakistan?

What is the responsibility of the employee in case of leaving before the end of the notice period? 0
What is the responsibility of the employee?
The employment contract is set to conclude on 31st May 2025. The employee initiated discussions regarding a salary increment approximately 30 days prior, during which the management engaged in meetings with the employee but ultimately decided to maintain the current salary.
The employee subsequently chose not to renew or continue the employment, this decision having been finalized in a meeting held on 20th May 2025.
How does the notice period apply in this context?
Specifically:
1) Would the grace period (30 days after the contract/visa ends) be considered as fulfilling the notice period requirement?
2) Is the employee entitled to request a different salary during this grace or notice period?

Tenant demanding more than RDC verdict. Must I pay before the execution file is issued? 0
Good day,
I am a landlord, and my tenant filed a case with the RDC. The verdict was in his favor, and I am to pay the financial claim, which is the fees and expenses of the case.
The tenant asked for a specific amount, which is higher than the official receipt that the RDC provided. So, I have paid that exact amount directly to the tenant.
Naturally, the tenant asked for more. May I ask for guidance regarding the procedure?
It has not been 15 days since the verdict, so I have been told by the RDC that the case is not final, and I must wait for the execution file to determine the exact amount.
While I am happy to wait for that, my tenant has been threatening to open an execution file if I do not pay before the 15th day. She mentioned a travel ban as well. I feel lost and uncomfortable with the situation.
Please help me understand the procedure.

Is it possible to resign on probation and return to home country? 1
Dear Sir/Madam,
Is it possible to resign on probation and return to home country?
I came here to join a company on November 1, 2022, and I got my Emirates ID on February 2, 2023. Now I want to resign because I am unable to adjust to the company's work culture and unprofessional behavior.
I am planning to go back to my home country, Bangladesh. I want to know how long I can stay after canceling the visa and if there is any obligation that could be created by my employer.
As I bear my all costs by myself coming over to Dubai, they only provide the company's visa cost.
Thank you!

هل هناك تبعات على إجراء عقد عمل صوري مع شركة قائمة بدون استلام راتب؟ 1
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته،
السادة الأعزاء المحترمين،
في القانون الإماراتي وعلى الأراضي الإماراتية ما حكم العقد الصوري في هذه الحالة: مقيم عاطل عن العمل أعزب يبرم عقد صوري بمسمى وظيفي مزيف وراتب مرتفع جداً لكي يتمكن من كفالة أهله من الدرجة الأولى والثانية؟
هل يمكن غض الطرف عن هذه الفعلة؟
أم هل ستتم محاسبة هذا الشخص بسبب انتقاله المفاجئ من البطالة إلى الراتب المرتفع؟
وما النتائج المترتبة على اكتشاف العقد الصوري؟
هل سيتم إلغاء كفالة الأهل؟ هل سيتم تغريمهم؟ ترحيلهم؟
وماذا عن الشخص نفسه هل يمكن زجه في السجن؟ لا قدر الله
أرجو الحصول على إجابة واضحة وشافية وشكراً لكم جزيل الشكر.
