Legal tip 1312. Imposition of legal costs and Law 57/68 ?
Monday, July 20, 2015 @ 3:55 PM
A recent Court Decission by Alicante Appeal Court received at the Law Firm. On legal costs payment and Law 57/68:
( Literal spanish version)
En cuanto a las costas, consideramos que existen serias dudas de derecho derivadas de (1) la necesidad o no de certificación individual de aseguramiento y (2) depósito específico de las cantidades en la cuenta especial correspondiente, para el nacimiento de la obligación de los avalistas de devolver las cantidades anticipadas, de hecho existe jurisprudencia menor contradictoria sobre el particular, incluso entre las propias secciones de la Audiencia Provincial de Alicante.
Por lo que no procede hacer especial pronunciamiento en costas en este proceso en ninguna de las dos instancias.
( which it reads in English as...)
In regards to costs we consider that there are serious doubts of law arising from (1) the need or otherwise for individual certification of specific deposit insurance and (2) payments of the same into an special account for the birth of the obligation of the gusrantoor in order to return the advanced payments , in fact there is contradictory jurisprudence on the subject, even among their own sections of the Provincial Court of Alicante. It is not appropriate to make a special statement in costs in this process in any of the two instances .
Despite statements of the Alicante Appeal Court above, Supreme Court has already stablished legal doctrine on:
- No need of individual certificate
- No need of deposit into a special account.
FOR THE BIRTH OF THE OBLIGATION OF THE GUARANTOOR IN ORDER TO RETURN THE ADVANCED PAYMENTS
