1) A marriage certificate attested outside of the UAE may not be valid in UAE courts, as shown by a Dubai court case.
2) The court determined it had jurisdiction over the case as both parties were UAE residents.
3) It rejected the plaintiff's divorce case because the marriage lacked required Islamic pillars like a guardian and dowry agreement, as shown by the foreign marriage certificate.
Faq about divorce in the uae personal statusCateSusen
Divorce has legal implications that require many procedures, in addition to other issues that are governed by Federal Law No. (28) of 2005 regarding personal status in the UAE (the Personal Status Law).
The Personal Status Law defines divorce as the dissolution of the legitimate marriage contract and indicated that a divorce is a legitimate act, whether it is verbally or in writing, or it is understood by a clear signal in the event of a disability.
The validity of a marriage under the U.S. immigration laws frequently determines whether a foreign national may be able to obtain a family-based immigrant or nonimmigrant visa, legalize unlawful status, or file waiver of inadmissibility or deportability. The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), the basic body of U.S. immigration laws, does not define the term "marriage". Although INA defines the term "spouse", it limits the definition to what may be excluded as unconsummated proxy marriage. Through the definition of the term "spouse" it can be inferred that a marriage, in order to be valid for immigration purposes, must be celebrated in the presence of both parties unless consummated. Although the INA does not specifically define the terms "marriage" and "spouse," it does now lays down the threshold requirement for the validity of marriage -- marriage be valid where celebrated.
Mutual consent divorce is a way of separating a marriage with the mutual decision of both husband and wife. Mutual consent divorce leads to saving time, efforts, money and energy and avoid quarrels between the couple.

The discovery process is now complete. The discovery material has been an-alyzed. The witnesses have been identified. The custody evaluation hasbeen prepared. The parties have either reached an agreement or have iden-
tified areas of disagreement. The parties are now ready to proceed to the next
step—the ddiivvoorrccee ttrriiaall,, the process in which both parties present their case to the
court for its final hearing. Divorce trials are for the most part bbeenncchh ttrriiaallss,, which
means that the trial is conducted before a judge, not a jury. In some jurisdictions
like New York and Texas, the parties can demand a jury trial in divorce cases. In a

bench trial the judge is both the trier of fact and law. The family court judge is
knowledgeable in the area of domestic relations and his role is to apply the law,
which includes statutory and case law, to the particular facts in the case before him
and render a decision that is fair to both parties.
Divorce trials are open to the public so anyone can sit in and observe the case.
Courtrooms may be sealed upon motion of the parties to protect children of the
marriage when the trial issues are of a particularly sensitive nature. Divorce files
are also open to the public and may be viewed in local courthouses at the clerk’s
office.
Divorce trials are either uncontested or contested. Whether the case is con-
tested or uncontested, the paralegal must send a formal notice to the court indi-
cating that the case is ready for the trial list. (See Exhibit 14–1.)
UNCONTESTED HEARING
In an uunnccoonntteesstteedd hheeaarriinngg,, the parties have either reached an agreement re-

to an action has failed to appear at the scheduled trial date even though she has

PRECEDENT AS A SOURCE OF LAW (SAIF JAVED).pptxOmGod1
Precedent, or stare decisis, is a cornerstone of common law systems where past judicial decisions guide future cases, ensuring consistency and predictability in the legal system. Binding precedents from higher courts must be followed by lower courts, while persuasive precedents may influence but are not obligatory. This principle promotes fairness and efficiency, allowing for the evolution of the law as higher courts can overrule outdated decisions. Despite criticisms of rigidity and complexity, precedent ensures similar cases are treated alike, balancing stability with flexibility in judicial decision-making.

WINDING UP of COMPANY, Modes of DissolutionKHURRAMWALI
Winding up, also known as liquidation, refers to the legal and financial process of dissolving a company. It involves ceasing operations, selling assets, settling debts, and ultimately removing the company from the official business registry.
Here's a breakdown of the key aspects of winding up:
Reasons for Winding Up:
Insolvency: This is the most common reason, where the company cannot pay its debts. Creditors may initiate a compulsory winding up to recover their dues.
Voluntary Closure: The owners may decide to close the company due to reasons like reaching business goals, facing losses, or merging with another company.
Deadlock: If shareholders or directors cannot agree on how to run the company, a court may order a winding up.
Types of Winding Up:
Voluntary Winding Up: This is initiated by the company's shareholders through a resolution passed by a majority vote. There are two main types:
Members' Voluntary Winding Up: The company is solvent (has enough assets to pay off its debts) and shareholders will receive any remaining assets after debts are settled.
Creditors' Voluntary Winding Up: The company is insolvent and creditors will be prioritized in receiving payment from the sale of assets.
Compulsory Winding Up: This is initiated by a court order, typically at the request of creditors, government agencies, or even by the company itself if it's insolvent.
Process of Winding Up:
Appointment of Liquidator: A qualified professional is appointed to oversee the winding-up process. They are responsible for selling assets, paying off debts, and distributing any remaining funds.
Cease Trading: The company stops its regular business operations.
Notification of Creditors: Creditors are informed about the winding up and invited to submit their claims.
Sale of Assets: The company's assets are sold to generate cash to pay off creditors.
Payment of Debts: Creditors are paid according to a set order of priority, with secured creditors receiving payment before unsecured creditors.
Distribution to Shareholders: If there are any remaining funds after all debts are settled, they are distributed to shareholders according to their ownership stake.
Dissolution: Once all claims are settled and distributions made, the company is officially dissolved and removed from the business register.
Impact of Winding Up:
Employees: Employees will likely lose their jobs during the winding-up process.
Creditors: Creditors may not recover their debts in full, especially if the company is insolvent.
Shareholders: Shareholders may not receive any payout if the company's debts exceed its assets.
Winding up is a complex legal and financial process that can have significant consequences for all parties involved. It's important to seek professional legal and financial advice when considering winding up a company.

RIGHTS OF VICTIM EDITED PRESENTATION(SAIF JAVED).pptxOmGod1
Victims of crime have a range of rights designed to ensure their protection, support, and participation in the justice system. These rights include the right to be treated with dignity and respect, the right to be informed about the progress of their case, and the right to be heard during legal proceedings. Victims are entitled to protection from intimidation and harm, access to support services such as counseling and medical care, and the right to restitution from the offender. Additionally, many jurisdictions provide victims with the right to participate in parole hearings and the right to privacy to protect their personal information from public disclosure. These rights aim to acknowledge the impact of crime on victims and to provide them with the necessary resources and involvement in the judicial process.
In 2020, the Ministry of Home Affairs established a committee led by Prof. (Dr.) Ranbir Singh, former Vice Chancellor of National Law University (NLU), Delhi. This committee was tasked with reviewing the three codes of criminal law. The primary objective of the committee was to propose comprehensive reforms to the country’s criminal laws in a manner that is both principled and effective.
The committee’s focus was on ensuring the safety and security of individuals, communities, and the nation as a whole. Throughout its deliberations, the committee aimed to uphold constitutional values such as justice, dignity, and the intrinsic value of each individual. Their goal was to recommend amendments to the criminal laws that align with these values and priorities.
Subsequently, in February, the committee successfully submitted its recommendations regarding amendments to the criminal law. These recommendations are intended to serve as a foundation for enhancing the current legal framework, promoting safety and security, and upholding the constitutional principles of justice, dignity, and the inherent worth of every individual.
Your attested marriage certificate might not be valid in uae courts
1. Your Attested Marriage Certificate Might Not Be
Valid In UAE Courts
Author: Dr. Hassan Elhais
The foregoing statement can be witnessed in different judgments issued by the courts of UAE in divorce
cases of foreign residents filed before the courts of UAE, wherein one of such judgments will be discussed in
this article by Family Lawyers of Dubai.
The Legal Structure
Marriage is a contract that legalize the enjoyment between the husband and wife; its objective is to protect
and to form a steady family under the care of the husband and ensuring the spouse the assumptions of
affection and compassion as mentioned in Article 19 of the Law. Nevertheless, as mentioned above, the
Family Law lays down certain prerequisites for to prove the occurrence of any marriage solemnized within
or outside the country. This is in accordance with Article 27 of the Law which primarily states that
Marriage shall be officially recorded, but in consideration of a specific fact, it can be proved by other means
admitted by Law of Sharia.
Case Excerpt
The afore-mentioned statement was well explained by Dubai Personal Status Court under case number
1032/2017 wherein the plaintiff (husband) registered a divorce case against the defendant (wife) by
submitting the Marriage Certificate attested by notary public of New York as the marriage was
consummated in USA. The Plaintiff confirmed that the marriage was made in accordance with the American
law and considering the defendant is a Christian, her guardian did not attend the marriage ceremony (as not
required in American Law) and the dowry was never discussed. The plaintiff asserted that defendant is not
obedient and initiates fights on the grounds of different religion and thus requested annulment of marriage.
The parties since failed to amicably resolve the dispute before Family Guidance Committee, the matter was
registered before Personal Status Court, wherein the Defendant submitted her defense stating that the Courts
of UAE are incompetent to issue a judgment on the concerned case.
Upon receiving the memorandums submitted by both the parties, the court issued a verdict based on several
provisions which will be discussed in following paragraphs. Primarily, the court established that both the
parties are not citizens of USA, thus, none of them requested to apply for the country of their origin and
thus, in accordance with Article 2(1) of the Family Law, the case will be governed in accordance with the
Family Law of UAE.
Secondly, in reference to the defense submitted by the defendant (challenging the competency of UAE
courts to issue a verdict on the said case) the court ruled that the statement of the defendant is invalid as per
Article 5 of the Family Law which reads as follows:
