Employee collects Dhs353,000 from client for a property sale, didn't deposit it in firm's account in Abu Dhabi
An employee at a real estate brokerage firm embezzled D353,000 from a client, prompting the Abu Dhabi Family, Civil, and Administrative Claims Court to order him to repay the amount to the company. The employee had received the amount as an initial payment for a residential unit but failed to deposit it into the company's account, leading the company to reimburse the client from its own funds. The company filed a lawsuit demanding the repayment of Dhs353,000, along with 5% interest and legal fees. It explained that the former employee, who had been deported after facing multiple court judgments, had received the cash amount of D353,000 from a client but never remitted it to the company. The court, relying on an expert report confirming the employee's debt, ordered him to repay the amount. Despite being legally summoned, the employee did not appear in court, leading to the court's ruling in favour of the company.

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.
