Legal advice

Our company decided to rent premises for the needs of the cafe. We submitted documents to the licensing commission to obtain a license for the retail sale of alcoholic beverages, but the licensing commission refused to issue such a license on the grounds that there is a previously registered license for the former tenant at our cafe. What should we do in this situation? 01.06.2010 Can a shareholder sell his shares in the LLC below the value specified in the message to the board so that other participants can use their preemptive rights? 27.05.2010 Is there any procedure how founders of an LLC can appeal a guarantee agreement signed by the chairman of the board? The founders believe that it was impossible to sign such an agreement, that it significantly worsens the financial condition of the enterprise, that the chairman of the board did not have the right to sign such an agreement without discussion with the founders. Details: the agreement was signed in 2008 without the participation of a notary, there was no information about it at the enterprise, not indicated in the annual report. 24.05.2010 I’m a guarantor for the mortgage loan of my friend. Recently I received a decision from the court stating that the sum of the loan and interest was recovered from me. I didn’t know anything about any court hearing and never received any requests for summons. Are the actions of the bank and court lawful? 24.05.2010 Is the name of the company (the name of the company under which it is registered in the Register of Enterprises) a trademark? 21.05.2010 I left the car in the courtyard of the house in the city center. When I returned, I found that snow fell on a car from the roof of a neighboring house and significantly damaged the car. From whom in this case should I demand compensation for repairs? 21.05.2010 Does the bailiff have the right to collect the debt for utility bills by selling mortgaged apartment in the auction? 21.05.2010 I have the following situation: I insured a tourism trip, including the risk of “inability to make a trip”. I could not make the trip, because for objective reasons my vacation was canceled by the management (there was an unforeseen situation and only I could solve it, which is documented). The insurance company refused to pay, indicating that this is not an insured event. Is the rejection of the insurance company legitimate? 21.05.2010 I am the owner of a garage in a garage cooperative in Vecmilgravis. The garage itself is located in the so-called “second row” of the cooperative, which, unlike the first row, is not a closed territory, and the garages simply stand in a row along Vecaku Avenue. After acquiring the garage three years ago, I received an oral invitation from the chairman of the cooperative to join the cooperative, which was supported by the message that if I did not join it, I would pay all the same membership fees as a member of the cooperative, but still plus VAT. At that time I did not understand these subtleties and signed the proposed appli8cation. However, over the years, membership fees of about 130 lats per year have become an exorbitant amount for my personal budget. I would like to leave the cooperative, but I’m concerned about the statement by the chairman of the cooperative that if I were not a member of the cooperative, I would have to pay all the same membership fees, but also plus VAT. Could you explain to me how justified this statement is? I want to emphasize that membership fees consist mainly of the salary of this very chairman, payment for the services of a guard and a dog (which I personally have never seen there before) and fees for “housekeeping”, i.e. of all the things that I can do without perfectly well. In addition, I already paid the land tax for the garage separately on a separate account from the Riga City Council. 21.05.2010 If a physical person has a debt for goods or services 1000 lats, then, to what maximum amount can a debt turn into, taking into account all fines, penalties, interest? Is there any limit to this amount? What law regulates this issue? 07.05.2010
