The Moscow Arbitration Court, at the request of the Principal, brought the debtor’s manager to subsidiary liability. The amount of liability is more than 1.2 billion rubles. As part of the dispute, lawyer of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure” convinced the court that it was the dishonest actions of the former manager that led the organization to bankruptcy and the impossibility of satisfying the claims of creditors. The completeness of the evidence of guilt of the involved person presented in the case made it possible to consider the claims in a relatively short time and recognize them as justified. The interests of the Client were represented by Ksenia Stikhina, senior lawyer of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure”.

The Ninth Arbitration Court of Appeal upheld the decision of the Moscow Arbitration Court, which denied the Principal’s opponent’s claims for debt collection under construction contracts. The appellate court, like the earlier court of first instance, agreed with the position of the lawyers of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure” that the Plaintiff, when filing a claim, abused his rights, which served as the basis for refusing to satisfy the stated claims. The abuse was expressed in the fact that the Claimant had previously admitted that there was no debt and signed completion certificates. However, two years after the work was completed and after the facility was put into operation, he went to court with demands for debt collection. Having agreed with the arguments of the Bureau’s lawyers about the Plaintiff’s contradictory behavior, the court came to the conclusion that the Plaintiff had abused the granted right and left the judicial act unchanged. The interests of the Principal were represented by Ilsur Zakirov, senior lawyer of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure”.
