The requirement for an Emarati Advocate to register Commercial Cassation at High Court

Q: The requirement for Emarati Advocate to register Commercial Cassation at High Court. There is an existing old law that states that only a registered Emarati Lawyer can register a Cassation lawsuit at the High Court for the 3rd level of the litigation. However, recently I was informed that there was a new resolution that allows a litigant to register a cassation lawsuit without presenting the POA in favor of an Emarati Advocate. If this is true, can you inform the resolution number? Please confirm if current Civil procedures demand an Emarati Advocate for Cassation lawsuit, or has that requirement been removed and now litigants can register their own Cassation lawsuits just like they can register First Instance and Appeal Lawsuits. PS: I also need to hire a lawyer for a new Commercial lawsuit. Please inform me of your phone number and I will call you. Thank you!

Claiming labor dues after signing the cancellation document

Q: Hi Rajasree, My Concern is I have worked with a company for almost close to four years and just recently I moved to another organization before a month. Upon cancellation of my visa, the previous organization has assured to provide me with all dues in the future, and hence, I have signed the same. As you are well aware of that, companies would not wait for the arrival of employees quite longer than usual and on mutual faith, I have signed the cancellation document. Now on a recent development, the previous organization`s MD has not responded to any calls and of course, I have sent an email. My pending dues are close to around AED 14K including two months` remuneration as well. Please suggest your advice and help! Thanks,
