By the ruling of the Moscow City Court, the decision of the court of first instance on the complete refusal to satisfy the Principal’s claims to recover the income received by the Defendant from renting his apartments in the center of Moscow was canceled.
In the case, a new decision was made to jointly recover from the unscrupulous landlord and tenant the income received and interest for the unlawful use of other people’s funds in the amount of more than 1 million rubles. During the consideration of the case in the court of first instance, the court considered that the lack of proof of the amount of damages was sufficient grounds for dismissing the claim, despite the court decision, in which all the conditions for the occurrence of civil liability were proven. The lawyers of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure” managed to prove in the court of appeal an incorrect interpretation of the legal norms when making the decision and the bad faith of the Defendants, which made it possible to recover jointly and severally the income received.
The interests of the Principal were represented by Dan Khorolets, lawyer of the practice of resolving economic disputes.
