Procedure for Entitlement in Seizure (ÇEVİRİ)

Procedure for Entitlement in Seizure (ÇEVİRİ)

PROCEDURE FOR CHARGES IN SEIZURE A. GENERAL INFORMATIONAlthough the debtor is the addressee of the enforcement proceedings, property believed to belong to the debtor but belonging to third parties can also be seized. The enforcement officer, taking into account the principle of order in seizure, may only seize property whose seizure is not prohibited by law. This principle serves not to collect the debt under any circumstances, but rather to establish a balance of interests between the creditor and the debtor. The enforcement officer has no other discretion and cannot assess whether the seized property actually belongs to the debtor.SEQUENCE IN SEIZURE: Only the debtor's property can be seized to the extent that it covers the principal and interest of the debt, as well as the enforcement expenses; no more can be seized (Article 85, I). However, when seizing sufficient property to cover the debtor's debt, it is necessary to begin with the property whose absence will least burden the debtor and is easiest to seize and sell. In other words, when seizing a debtor's property, a specific order is observed, which is called the order of seizure. Disputed property refers to property declar..

APKIS optional rights (ÇEVİRİ)

APKIS optional rights (ÇEVİRİ)

ELECTIONAL RIGHTS IN THE EVENT OF THE CONTRACTOR'S DEFAULT IN THE DELIVERY OF THE WORK There is no specific provision in the TCC regarding the contractor's default in the delivery of independent sections in a construction contract in exchange for a land share. Therefore, if the contractor defaults in the delivery of independent sections, the general provisions of the TCC and, where applicable, the provisions pertaining to the work contract will apply. The institution of the debtor's default in Articles 117 and 118 of the TCC and the related provisions will apply to the contractor's default in the delivery of independent sections and the consequences thereof. In this context: For a contractor to be in default on their obligation to deliver the independent sections, the obligation must be due and payable, the independent sections must not be delivered, the landowner must have provided a warning, and there must be no reasons preventing the default. However, the contractor's default on their obligation to deliver the independent sections is not, as a rule, required to be at fault. However, justified delay may prevent the contractor from defaulting because it eliminates the delay in f..

Criminal Law

Criminal Law

Criminal Law Criminal law is a branch of public law that regulates criminal acts and the legal penalties for these acts. Its main goal is to protect social order and the fundamental rights of individuals. Crimes such as intentional killing, fraud, embezzlement, threats, drug trafficking, sexual offenses, forgery, and abuse of power fall under this field. These accusations do not only create legal consequences. They also affect a person’s freedom, reputation, and social life. Because of this, criminal cases must be handled with legal expertise and strategic thinking.A criminal case goes through many stages. These include police questioning, the prosecutor’s investigation, court hearings, and if needed, appeals. During these stages, the presumption of innocence is essential. A person cannot be seen as guilty until there is a final decision by a court. Another important rule is the right to be protected from unjust harm to one’s reputation. This right ensures that people do not suffer unfair damage to their name or image during an investigation. Even if there is an allegation, no one should be treated like a criminal unless there is clear and lawful evidence.At Uzunpınar TÜFEK Intern..
