ادعاء الخصم بيع المنقولات المحجوز عليها قبل قرار الحجز. ماذا أفعل؟

س: السلام عليكم، ادعى خصمي أنه باع المنقولات المحجوز عليها قبل صدور القرار بوقف التنفيذ في القضية، وأتى بعقد مبايعة مع أحد معارفه بتاريخ سابق لقرار وقف التنفيذ. أعلم يقينًا أن المبايعة صورية ولم تتم على أرض الواقع وأنها مجرد حبر على ورق، ولكن لا أملك إثباتًا. هل توجد طريقة قانونية لإجبار البائع أو المشتري ليثبت أنه قام بتسليم أو استلام المبلغ المذكور في المبايعة؟ أو قام المشتري بنقلها أو إعادة بيعها إلى مشترٍ آخر؟ أرجو إفادتي!

Can the landlord evict me or increase the rent by sending a two months notice for that?

Q: My landlord wants to evict me (60 days notice) because he wants to sell the property. I told him that he has to give me a 12 months notice which he sent and we received. He also wants to increase the rent above the RERA Index Calculator. I informed him that I am not willing to pay the increase above RERA calculator and also because he did not give us a 3 months notice for the increase and asking me to leave in 2 months. He does not want to renew the contract saying I did not confirm to him my intention to stay (as per contract it says 2 months notice to be given by the tentant or landlord if they want to stay or leave) and that I should leave in 2 months. I am aware that he knows we want to stay since we are discussing rent and eviciton in 12 months the landlord is using this now to evict us. We want him to be fair and want to understand our rights.

Evicting a tenant for personal use while it will be rent out. What to do?

Q: Dear Sir/Madam, My landlord wants to evict me for "personal use of the property," but I am sure he wants to rent it out. My eviction notice came two months after my rent renewal, which means that at the end of my lease, I have to either renew my lease for two more months (which I am not sure is possible) or move out two months before the notice period ends. 1) If I choose the latter option, will I still be able to file a case against my landlord for evicting me so that he can rent out the property? 2) How much does it cost to file a case, how long does it typically take to win, and how much compensation is awarded? Is it worth it to file a case?
