note
However, if all the measures taken to collect communal debts at the pre-trial stage did not lead to a satisfactory result - repayment of debts for communal services - the judicial recovery procedure is applied by filing a statement of claim for collecting utility bills: - preparation and submission of a statement of claim to the court for collection utility bills
Useful advice
Suppose there is a court decision and a writ of execution for collecting a huge amount of debt for utility bills, which has accumulated over the years. And there is no other property except for the apartment in which the debtor lives with his family and which belongs to him by right of ownership. There is an opinion: the owner is responsible for the debts with all his property. If the debt for housing services is very large, then it can be recovered in court.
