21.10.2024

Genya Petrosyan, director of the LDPF,  sat down with Narine Solomonyan, host of the “Your Attorney” program to discuss the issues of administrative procedure and compulsory enforcement of judicial acts. The problems discussed were identified as part of the study carried out by the LDPF, which also proposed respective solutions.

Petrosyan touched upon the solution to the problem of disproportionality of enforcement costs, the order of the distribution of confiscated funds, confiscation of non-inherited property, the real beneficiary of the debtor, and the protection of the rights of minors in this context.

The discussion also shed light on the issues of the procedure for challenging regulatory acts, which often make citizens’ complaints aimed at protecting their rights meaningless. 

It is worth noting that the Law Development and Protection Foundation was part of the working group on the new Law on Enforcement Proceedings established by the Ministry of Justice.
