Russian courts should assist in the search for property for the purpose of enforcing foreign court decisions

The courts are careful to protect a defendant’s private life. This is evident from a case in which the courts refused to search for the debtor’s property, despite the plaintiff’s “guess” about its existence. The Supreme Court of the Russian Federation sent the case for a new hearing, confirming the duty of the court to facilitate the collection of information on the existence of property. To where does the “impartiality” of the court lead? Artur Zurabyan, the head of Dispute Resolution and International Arbitration Practice of ART DE LEX, commented on the situation: https://www.advgazeta.ru/novosti/rossiyskie-sudy-dolzhny-sodeystvovat-v-rozyske-imushchestva-v-tselyakh-ispolneniya-resheniy-inostrannykh-sudov/
