LEGAL REMEDIES AGAINST CANCER DRUGS NOT COVERED BY THE SOCIAL SECURITY INSTITUTION (SGK) AND THE HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION COMMUNIQUÉ

If the interim injunction is granted, the cost of the drug can be covered by SGK throughout the treatment period...

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..

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..
