What to do when you face a civil case for bounced cheque

Q: Salaam Alaikum The bank bounced a cheque of AED 103,000 for my business partner and filed a criminal case. My partner has already paid "more" than the cheque amount of AED 106,585. We have full proof. Only AED 53,000 was outstanding - this is mostly interest, legal charges, late charges and fines. The rest is all paid properly. Unfortunately, this year his business had a lot of losses. As he was unable to pay the full amount, as per new Dubai laws and Police, he paid 10,000 AED fine and got the criminal case removed by the public prosecutor a few days ago. Now, the bank told him they will file a civil case. What happens now? How many weeks will it take to get a court hearing and what`s his recourse?

Liability for medical costs in a rented car accident

Q: Hello. I`m a tourist. I got a car accident last June. The police gave me a green report for car damage. After 2 days I felt pain, so I went to see a doctor. Because I don`t have a health insurance, the medical cost was very expensive for me. So after that, I couldn`t see a doctor anymore and I couldn`t receive anything even medical cost. The car was rented, so the rental company dealt with the damaged car. Can I receive medical cost?
