Can I request a vehicle auction after Dubai Court has blocked the debtor’s traffic file?

Dear Lawyers,

Dubai Court has blocked the traffic file number of the debtor's vehicle for failing to pay me (the creditor) as per the judgment.

Can I request the court to auction the vehicle?

Please advise!

Thanks and Regards,

Hello,

Blocking the traffic file is a step in the execution of the court judgment. The next step typically involves seizing the vehicle and proceeding with its auction.

The execution department of the Dubai Courts is responsible for implementing court judgments, including asset seizures and auctions.

You will likely need to file an application with the execution department of the Dubai Courts requesting the seizure and auction of the vehicle.

Dear Inquirer,

Yes, since the Dubai Court has already blocked the debtor’s traffic file due to non-payment, you can request the court to proceed with the seizure and auction of the vehicle to recover your dues.

This requires filing an execution request to enforce the judgment through public auction.

To ensure a swift and effective legal process, we recommend seeking professional assistance. Book a consultation with us to proceed with the necessary legal steps.

Best regards,
