ADCC 151/2025

A dispute arose over whether an 11-year-old investment agreement for commercial property use was misclassified as a rental contract, leading to jurisdictional challenge between the Commercial Court and the Rental Dispute Settlement Committee.

Background

An Appellant initiated case No. 80/2024 (Commercial – First Instance, Al Ain) against the Respondents, seeking to rescind the investment contract and terminate their contractual relationship due to the Respondents' failure to fulfil essential obligations, including converting the residential property into a commercial property and delivering a long-term investment contract as agreed.
