Precautionary Measures

Precautionary measures are legal actions taken to safeguard the rights of the claimant before a final judgment is issued in a lawsuit. These measures aim to prevent the defendant from disposing of their funds or assets, or engaging in any actions that could harm the claimant’s rights.

There are several types of precautionary measures that can be taken, including:

• Precautionary seizure
• Prohibition of disposal
• Order to provide financial guarantees
• Order to undertake specific actions

There are certain conditions that must be met in order to take precautionary measures, including:

• The claimant must have a legal basis to substantiate their right to compensation.
• There must be a risk that the defendant may dispose of their funds or assets in a way that harms the claimant’s rights.
• It must be likely that a judgment will be issued in favor of the claimant.

Precautionary measures are taken by submitting a request to the competent court. This request includes an explanation of the reasons for taking precautionary measures and providing evidence that the defendant poses a risk to the claimant’s rights. If the request is accepted, the judge issues an order to take the precautionary measures.

Precautionary measures result in the suspension of the defendant’s ability to dispose of their funds or assets or engage in any actions that may harm the claimant’s rights. In the event of non-compliance with the precautionary measures, the claimant can request the court to issue a judgment against the defendant.
