Al Ain man buys vehicle for Dhs11,500 but pays only Dhs300, court tells him to pay remaining amount
Al Ain Court for Civil, Commercial and Administrative Cases obligated a person to pay Dhs11,200 to another for abstaining from settling the remaining price of a vehicle already delivered to him. The defendant paid only Dhs300 although he had an agreement with the plaintiff to buy the vehicle for a specific sum of money. Earlier, the plaintiff filed a lawsuit in which he requested the court to obligate the defendant to pay him Dhs11,200 plus Dhs3,000 in compensation for the material and moral harms and the legal expenses and fees. The plaintiff pleaded that pursuant to an agreement between them, he sold the vehicle subject of the lawsuit to the defendant for Dhs11,500 but the latter paid only Dhs300 and refused to pay the remainder despite the expiry of the agreed-upon period. This caused him material and moral harms and prompted him to file this lawsuit to obtain a verdict in his favour, he said. To support his lawsuit, the plaintiff submitted a copy of the sales contract. After reviewing the case, the court was hereby satisfied that the plaintiff was entitled to what he was requesting, especially since the defendant did not dispute the validity of the debt and did not present anything that contradicted the related documents. Based on this, the court ruled that the plaintiff's requests be fulfilled and the remaining amount stated in the sales contract be paid. As far as the compensation claim was concerned, the court stated that according to Article 292 of the Civil Transactions Law, compensation should cover both the actual loss suffered by the victim and any loss of profit, provided that these are a direct consequence of the harmful act. As the plaintiff, with whom the burden of proof lies, neither explained the nature of the harms nor the losses he sustained as a result of what the defendant did, the court hereby rejected this claim as it stood.

Woman fined Dhs20,000 for insulting another woman via WhatsApp in Al Ain
Al Ain Court of First Instance obligated a woman to pay Dhs20,000 to another woman for insulting her via WhatsApp. The defendant had been convicted of this charge in a previous lawsuit. The plaintiff filed a lawsuit against the defendant in which she requested the court to obligate the latter to pay her Dhs100,000 in compensation for the material and moral harms she had befallen plus the fees and expenses. The plaintiff pleaded that the defendant had verbally abused her via WhatsApp and had already been convicted of this charge in a previous lawsuit, which was upheld by the Court of Appeal. As she had suffered several harms due to what the defendant did, the plaintiff was prompted to file this lawsuit with the aforementioned requests. The court explained that the defendant's error was proven and resulted in psychological, moral and material harms to the plaintiff. As there was a causal relationship between the error and the harm, the defendant is legally obligated to compensate the plaintiff for those harms. The court thereby estimated the compensation due to the plaintiff at Dhs20,000.
