Devrek Court Announces Highway Authority's Expropriation of Property

A legal notice from the Devrek 3rd Civil Court of First Instance announces a significant expropriation process affecting a property in the Karşıyaka neighborhood of Devrek district, Zonguldak province. The General Directorate of Highways is initiating the compulsory purchase of parcel 27 in block 43, a move that will impact numerous property owners, including Arzu Sabancı and others listed. This action is being undertaken under Law No. 2942 on Expropriation, specifically Article 7. The court has opened a case (No. 2026/373) for the determination and registration of the expropriation price, as per Article 10 of the same law. The notice emphasizes the urgency for all involved parties to present their defenses and evidence concerning the property's value within 10 days of the announcement. Furthermore, it outlines the legal framework for challenging the expropriation, allowing for administrative or judicial review within 30 days. Failure to act within these timelines could lead to the finalization of the expropriation process, with the property being registered under the name of the General Directorate of Highways and the determined compensation deposited at Devrek Vakıf Bankası.
