Abu Dhabi woman lures another woman to join saving plan, defrauds her of Dhs30,000
Abu Dhabi Family, Civil, and Administrative Cases Court has ordered a woman to pay Dhs30,000 to another who she agreed with to join a joint savings scheme (known as a "jam'iya").
The two had agreed to contribute Dhs6,000 monthly for six months, totaling Dhs36,000 but the suspect paid only the first installment, received her full share of Dhs36,000, and then failed to pay the remaining installments without justification.
The plaintiff filed a lawsuit demanding the appellee repay her Dhs30,000, along with Dhs5,000 in compensation for delayed payment, a 12% legal interest from the due date until full settlement, and coverage of legal fees and expenses.
The plaintiff explained that she and the appellee agreed to a six-month jam'iya scheme, with each contributing Dhs6,000 monthly to reach Dhs36,000.
The appellee reportedly paid the first installment of Dhs6,000, and the plaintiff transferred her Dhs36,000 but she stopped paying the remaining installments.
The court ruled to terminate the agreement between the parties and ordered the appellee to return Dhs30,000 to the plaintiff.

Al Ain court obligates a man to pay 51,430 for causing traffic accident
The Abu Dhabi Family, Civil and Administrative Cases Court has ordered a person to pay Dhs51,430 plus a fine of Dhs5,000 as a compensation to another man for damaging two vehicles while driving. Earlier, the plaintiff filed a lawsuit against the defendant in which he requested that he be obligated to pay Dhs51,430, which was the cost of repair for his damaged car plus Dhs75,000 as the rental of a car of the same type that he had to rent while his car was under repair. He also requested the court to obligate the defendant to pay the incurred charges, expenses and lawyer's fees. The plaintiff pleaded that the defendant caused damage to his vehicle, noting that the defendant was convicted of the charge in a lawsuit that had already been filed against. In support of his lawsuit, the plaintiff attached to his docket a copy of the traffic accident report and a copy of the supervising judge's decision to appoint a technical expert to investigate the issue and assess the cost of repair of the plaintiff's vehicle. The technical expert decided that the total repair costs of Dhs51,430 as incurred by the plaintiff were reasonable and in line with the extent of the damages resulting from the accident, assuming that he had bought original spare parts. As for the plaintiff's request for Dhs75,000 as a compensation for not being able to use his car for approximately 6 months from the date of the accident until the date of the actual repair of the car, the court estimated that a Dhs5,000 compensation for the material harms caused to the plaintiff due to the defendant's error would be sufficient.

e-biker dies in Dubai accident, driver ordered to pay blood money and Dhs10,000 fine
Mohammed Yaseen, Staff Reporter Dubai Misdemeanour Court fined a vehicle driver Dhs10,000 and suspended his licence for six months from the date of the ruling for causing the death of an electric bike rider on Marsa Drive Street. Court also ordered the driver to pay Dhs200,000 in full blood money (diyah) to the heirs of the electric bike rider. The incident dates back to January when Dubai Police received a report of a run-over accident in the Marsa Drive area. A policeman testified that he rushed to the scene and found the victim lying lifeless on the ground next to his electric bike, along with the driver of the vehicle responsible for the accident. The policeman added that after inspection, it was determined that the vehicle driver was responsible for the accident as he entered the road without ensuring it was clear, colliding with the electric bike rider, who was in the correct lane. This was affirmed through an examination of the accident site and CCTV footage, the policeman added. On being questioned, the suspect denied causing the victim's death, claiming that the victim was riding his electric bike at high speed and was not wearing reflective clothing, making it difficult to spot him. The court found the suspect's fault proved, as he failed to exercise caution while driving, adding that by entering the road without ensuring it was clear, he collided with the electric bike, which was in its correct lane, causing severe injuries to the rider which led to his death.

Al Ain court orders man to pay Dhs38,000 for selling someone else's car
Al Ain Court for Civil, Commercial, and Administrative Cases ordered a man to pay Dhs38,000 to another, after the first man advertised a car for sale, prompting the second to send him the purchase amount but the seller delayed delivering the car, and it was later discovered that the car belonged to someone else. The purchaser filed a lawsuit against the seller, demanding he pay Dhs41,300 along with fees and expenses. The appellee had advertised a 2014 model car for sale, and the plaintiff transferred the purchase amount but the appellee delayed delivery, and it was found that the car belonged to another person. The plaintiff also requested that the appellee be directed to take a decisive oath, swearing that he did not owe the plaintiff Dhs38,000, the amount paid for the car. The plaintiff submitted supporting documents, including a bank transfer receipt for the claimed amount and a payment invoice for fines totaling Dhs3,300. The appellee failed to attend the session allocated for the oath despite being notified. The court stated that since the appellee did not attend the session for the decisive oath, it issued a ruling in absentia, ordering him to pay the plaintiff Dhs38,000.
