The Supreme Court spelled out a procedure for verifying arbitrage relating to fictitious debt

If bankruptcy is initiated on the basis of a dubious ruling made by an arbitration court, then it cannot be contested in the framework of the bankruptcy case. The court that issued the enforcement order must be petitioned. That was what one creditor bank did. But its petition was rejected because the court of cassation could not delve into all the relevant circumstances. This vicious circle was broken by the Supreme Court Judicial Chamber on Economic Disputes.

Lawyers consider a general property owners’ meeting the preferred form to show a declaration of intent

Lawyers recommend that housing residents hold general property owners’ meetings, regardless of whether their home is currently on the list of any renovation program or there is only the possibility of it being included in one. In addition, it is advisable that property owners check whether their cadastral documentation has been issued for the plot of land under the building that is a common shared property; if not, it should be registered as soon as possible.

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.
