- Dubai’s Civil Court rejected two men’s lawsuit seeking to overturn a judgment ordering them to jointly pay about 35.36 million euros.

- The underlying dispute involved money allegedly transferred to buy gold and precious metals that were not delivered.
Dubai’s Civil Court has rejected a lawsuit filed by two men who sought to invalidate a judgment ordering them to jointly pay approximately 35.36 million euros.
The men argued that they had not been properly notified of the earlier proceedings. They asked the court to annul or declare invalid the judgment issued in a civil case brought by a company over financial transfers allegedly made to purchase gold and precious metals that were never delivered.
The original ruling ordered the plaintiffs to pay the amount. Their appeal failed because it was filed after the deadline, and the Court of Cassation later upheld the ruling. A subsequent petition for judicial review was also declared inadmissible.
The Civil Court therefore rejected the latest challenge and left the payment judgment in force.
