The decision was appealed by the defendant’s attorney.
The case is part of article 792 of law No. 6102. it is related to the request for ouster based on the article, and the court decided to accept the case on the grounds described above. The turnover sequence on the cheque is complete and it is understood that the defendant is the authorized holder. The law mentioned in article “Check if it is knocked out by any means, or are pregnant or endorsement written you a check that the holder of the rights in question can be transferred through to get ahold of you and 790 new Hamil according to Article proved in the past, but still with bad intent purchases or acquisitions to give the check back in a severe defect was found, then he is obliged.” as stated. According to the provision of this article, the defendant has no obligation to prove the reason for obtaining the check. The defendant must know or be in a position to know that the cheque was disposed of without consent. If the cheque is disposed of without consent, the burden of proof belongs to the plaintiff, who claims that he is the authorized holder of the cheque and that he left his hand with his consent, and the plaintiff must prove his claim with conclusive and convincing evidence. The court could not determine that the plaintiff was the authorized holder of the check, as well as the evidence presented by the defendant was incorrectly evaluated and it was decided to accept the case with a bet that the defendant was unfair in holding the check. The fact that the defendant acquired the check subject to the lawsuit after the robbery act against the plaintiff and the absence of a book record does not indicate that the defendant does not have a commercial relationship with the turnover and that the defendant is seriously defective in the acquisition of the check. For these reasons, and considering that the defendant is not a defendant in the criminal case being conducted, it was not considered correct to decide to accept the case when the case should have been dismissed, and with the acceptance of the appeal appeal of the defendant’s attorney, the decision had to be overturned in the interest of the defendant.
CONCLUSION: With the acceptance of the appeal objection of the defendant’s attorney for the reasons described above, it was unanimously decided on 23.12.2014 to OVERTURN the decision in the interest of the defendant, to return the appeal advance fee paid to the appellant if requested.
