The Meshchansky District Court of Moscow agreed with the arguments of the lawyers of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure” and satisfied the claim for the liquidation of the Charitable Foundation. The stated claim is due to the requirements of the legislation, which provide for the possibility of a non-profit organization exclusively through a judicial procedure. During the trial, the grounds established by law for the liquidation of the fund were successfully proved. The interests of the Principal were represented by Ekaterina Bulygina, Senior Lawyer of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure”.

The Nikulinsky District Court of Moscow refused to satisfy the claims against the Principal for the recovery of a forfeit and a fine for violating the terms for the return of funds under the agreement on termination of the preliminary contract for the sale of real estate. Lawyers of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure” managed to prove that the contract cannot be terminated under an agreement on termination unsigned by one of its parties, and the Plaintiff’s statement about the implicit actions of the Principal to return part of the contract price cannot be recognized as such, since in order to conclude an agreement in the acceptance-offer form, it is necessary that the party accepting the offer perform at least one of the stipulated actions within the period established for acceptance. However, the refund of funds was made after the terms proposed by the Plaintiff. The Court also took into account the explanations of the Bureau’s lawyers that due to the non-conclusion of the termination agreement, the preliminary agreement was valid until the deadline stipulated in it, and the full refund of funds was made after the grounds for withholding them had disappeared. The interests of the Principal were represented by Ilsur Zakirov, Senior Lawyer of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure”.

The Arbitration Court of the Moscow Region refused to invalidate the results of the first meeting of the debtor’s creditors. The Principal, being the majority creditor, decided that it was necessary to apply to the court with an application for the introduction of bankruptcy proceedings against the debtor and the beginning of the sale of property. However, the debtor and a number of creditors affiliated with him did not agree with this decision. The opponents made an attempt to disrupt the creditor’s meeting, and after the failure they appealed to the court with a statement challenging its results. Employees of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure” refuted the unfounded claims of affiliated creditors, confirmed the legitimacy of the meeting and its results. The legal position on the dispute was prepared by Roman Volkomorov, lawyer of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure”, and Nikolay Polusitov, senior lawyer of the Bureau’s Tyumen branch, represented the Principal’s interests in court.
