Requesting only compensation instead of contract performance in a real estate case?
Q: Dear Sir/Madam, In our real estate case, we`ve requested contract performance followed by compensation. 4-5 months later, an expert was appointed, and during a hearing, the defendant stated on record that he isn`t willing to sell to us. We urgently need to buy a house, but the case is dragging. Is it too late to change our request from contract performance to compensation only, considering he isn`t willing to sell anyway? Or can the court still force him to sell to us?Mar 20, 2024

How to add a police report of physical assault to a family case after the judgment is issued?
Q: How to raise a request in the MOJ e-filing system (Smart justice portal) requesting the judge to obtain reports from the police and social support center? I`m a plaintiff (husband). On the 7th of Mar 2024, the first instance divorce judgment was provided based on Article 7 of Federal Law 41 of 2022 and Article 133 of the Code of Civil Procedures. The defendant (wife) was requested to pay expenses and fees. A verbal request was made to the judge during the trial by the plaintiff, but the court doesn`t have these records as per the court front desk. This report can prove a physical assault, infidelity, and written agreements made with social support and the defendant did abide by it, as the plaintiff was forced to initiate divorce. Is possible to raise it now after the judgment since it is an important record for future child custody? Or same request can be made again during the child custody case? And is it recommended to only proceed with moral damages and financial damages claims as of now?

Suggesting new contract and rent after an eviction notice - Is this normal?
Q: Dear Sir/Madam, My landlord recently gave me a mandatory legal notice for eviction with the intention to sell. Ideally, I have to move out in a few months, and then one of the secretaries of my landlord mentioned that they want to talk to me in person (not officially in chat or email). They mentioned that if I`m interested, I can stay with a new contract & new price. Basically what they`re saying is, since they`ve given me a notice, they want to treat me as a new tenant with a new price instead of sticking to the max 20% limit enforced by RERA for renewals. He also mentioned that even after this, they would give me a court notice again and a new price. This sounded crazy to me because it feels like a loophole to get rid of this RERA renewal restriction and they plan to kick anyone after a year. I`m planning to find a new place anyway because I need to secure a house for my family first before fighting wrongful eviction. But what would be my chances here? is this normal?Mar 19, 2024
