July 31 When the arguments are very convincing

The Moscow Arbitration Court approved a settlement agreement on the claim of the Principal, prepared by lawyers of the Bureau. The essence of the requirements was to recover losses from the beneficiary company, each month of inaction of which was the basis for our Principal to incur expenses in connection with the payment of interest on a bank guarantee. Separately, it should be noted the complexity of court disputes on the recovery of damages, since according to the explanations of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, 4 elements of the offense must be proved in this category of cases: the presence of losses, the unlawful behavior of the harm-doer, his guilt and the relationship between his actions / inaction and the resulting losses. Failure to provide evidence for at least one of the four elements of the composition is an unconditional basis for dismissing the claim. Meanwhile, the legal position of the Bureau’s lawyers and the arguments of the claim, as well as the evidence presented, were so convincing for the Defendant that before the first hearing of the case, the opponent proposed to our Principal the conclusion of a settlement agreement. All claims under the lawsuit in the amount of more than 1.4 million rubles were paid and at the very first meeting, the actually executed agreement was approved. The interests of the Principal were represented by Nikita Filippov, Head of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure”, Rashid Gitinov, Head of the practice of resolving disputes with state bodies, and Irina Novikova, trainee lawyer.
