Arbitration proceedings: there are no precedents yet, but you hang in there

Six months have passed since the time when legislators started to allow transferring certain corporate disputes over to the arbitration courts for review. This means disputes that are connected with creating, reorganizing, or dissolving a legal entity, that have to do with claims filed by one participant in the legal entity vis-à-vis his/her legal relationships with other parties, that concern appeals filed for decisions made by the legal entity's board of directors, and others. These disputes can be only be given over for review to an arbitration court that has the status of being an arbitration institution that operates on a permanent basis, with fully-developed, published Rules governing corporate disputes, and given the existence of an appropriate arbitration agreement.

Untaken loans are presented to the court

In May, the Otradnoe District Court will review a criminal case, filed in accordance with a claim made by Rosselkhozbank, that involves incidents of fraud committed while preparing loans for residents in Kuban’s Uspenskiy District. The recipients of loans that are owed to the creditor argue that either they did not sign any agreement or dispute the amount of funds that they actually received. Experts note that cases where fictitious loans are issued to third parties, including to unscrupulous bank employees, are not unheard of in Russian practice. Lawyers are consulting the victims to petition to suspend civil proceedings before the completion of criminal proceedings in order to preclude the initiation of collection efforts.

“FV” analysed the draft amendments to Law FZ-7 “On Non-Profit Organizations” within the sphere of clarifying the notion of “political activities”, and came up with a curious conclusion. If this law is adopted, joining the ranks of foreign agents, with a high degree of probability, will be the majority of charities and professional associations operating in the pharmaceutical industry. Moreover, these may not only be the companies, whose staff is composed of citizens of other countries, but also those whose members are traditionally domestic organizations, but with offshore charter capital.
