المطالبة بالتعويض ضد شخص زور شيكًا وصدر حكم لصالحه غيابيًا

س: مرحبًا، لدي استفسار بخصوص قانون العقوبات الأردني وقانون أصول المحاكم الجزائية. القصة: شخص افترى على والدي بتهمة إصدار شيك بدون رصيد (في سنة 2011)؛ القضية كانت جزائية وحقوقية. والدي حُكم عليه بسنة سجن لأنه كان خارج البلاد ولم يعلم بالقضية؛ وعندما دخل البلاد اضطر أن يدفع قيمة الشيك. والدي لم يُسجَن لأنه استأنف الحكم ضده وثبتت براءته (بناء على تقرير خبير الخطوط). قدم والدي أيضًا شكوى ضد الشخص المذكور سابقًا بتهمة التزوير. القضية انتهت سنة 2017 وحكم نهائيًا على الشخص المذكور سابقًا بالسجن لمدة سنة وأيضًا بسداد (إعادة) المبلغ لوالدي. هذا الشخص هرب من البلاد (لم يُسدد)، وبعدها صدر قانون العفو العام بخصوص التزوير. السؤال: نرغب في رفع قضية افتراء (جنحة) ضد هذا الشخص الهارب. متى بدأ التقادم بخصوص هذه الدعوى (التي لم نرفعها حتى الآن)؟ أظن أن التقادم (الثلاث سنوات للجنحة) بخصوص الافتراء بدأ من تاريخ الحكم النهائي سنة 2017؛ لأنه لم يكن بإمكاننا رفع قضية افتراء قبل ذلك التاريخ. الرجاء التوضيح! أيضًا، هل تم تجميد التقادم في محاكم الأردن أثناء وباء الكورونا (2022-2020)؟ شكرًا لكم!

I bought a restaurant from the old owner and discovered issues with the trade license

Q: I bought a restaurant from the old owner and a trade license transfer was done. But when we went to the bank (the bank is managing the building where the restaurant shop is) to transfer the tenancy contract and get the Tawtheeq, the bank said there is an issue in the building and they cannot issue Tawtheeq. Without Tawtheeq, I cannot renew the trade license and complete the transfer of the shop tenancy contract. Please let me know if there is any legal action I can take against the old owner and file a case against him as the transfer of shop is not completed.

How to claim pending salaries and labor dues then cancel visa to join another job?

Q: Greetings. I am working in an Abu Dhabi-based company. I have three months pending salaries since Dec 2021. The fourth month is ongoing. I got a new job and I submitted my resignation by mail on 24-Feb-2022. Now the company says our WBS system is blocked and they can cancel my visa by paying a penalty. But I have to sign that I received all pending dues, then they will provide my pending dues whenever they received money from a client. Any chance to join my new company without any problem? If I go to the labor court, can I get my pending dues immediately? How much does it cost? Requesting your kind guidance.

How to remove a ban upon the issuance of a new law?

Q: Dear sir/madam, I was born and brought up in the UAE and lived there for 18 years. My family owns 2 properties and a business in Sharjah and Dubai. In 2017, I was deported for a mistake I made because of a bad influence, and my future was ruined. It was a genuine mistake of using illegal substances (Marijuana) in Sharjah. While I was imprisoned in Sharjah, I did not get any proper representation or chance to speak to a lawyer or the judge and was directly deported on a special pardon in October 2017. My parents have tried removing the ban from MOI Abu Dhabi with a special pardon but have got rejected every time and now we lost hope and ask you to help in this situation. I have not done any criminal activity or illegal activity before this. My records are clean. I really wish to get back to my family. Please help me in removing the ban. I have recently heard of the new law which has been imposed since January 2022 with no mandatory deportation. Will this help my case in any way?

The safest way to settle a bank loan without being arrested while coming back to the UAE

Q: Hello Experts, I need your kind advice regarding my loan. I had a loan of 250k and a credit card of 13k with a bank. When I left the UAE in March-20, my cumulative outstanding of both was 160k. Since then, I`m in Pakistan and hasn`t come back to the UAE The bank has bounced security cheques and filed criminal cases. Now I have a job offer from Dubai and they already applied for my employment visa. Meanwhile, I`m negotiating with the bank for a one-shot settlement over the telephone. They are asking me to pay 112k one payment for the full and final settlement of both liabilities. They have waived off all the interest and just asking the principal amount in this way. Please advise if 112k is a good deal considering the situation or I should have to get more discount. Also, advise how should I go forward with them (they said, they`ll issue a settlement letter/new offer letter, after which I`ll submit the payment and then within 2 weeks they`ll withdraw the criminal case).
