If you have been charged a debt for utilities that you do not agree with, do not delay. Order a claim for cancellation of debt for utilities. Such a claim is filed with the court when the utility company issues bills without legal grounds: for example, if you did not live in the apartment, did not use the services, and the contract for their provision was not concluded. A successful claim can cancel the debt completely or reduce the amount to a fair amount.

Grounds for writing off debt for utilities

The court considers each case individually. But there is a list of reasons when the debt for utility services is justified:

the services were charged after the housing was disconnected from the networks;
at the time of the debt accrual, you were not actually living in the premises;
the amount of the debt has already been paid or covered by a subsidy;
the debt was formed without a concluded contract for the provision of services;
the supplier did not provide proper evidence of the volume of services provided.

Lawyers will help prove the validity of each reason, formulate arguments and prepare the correct evidence base.

Application to cancel a court order for utility services

If the court has issued a court order to collect a debt for utility services without your participation, you have the right to file a application to cancel this order. Such an application does not require detailed justification: it is enough to simply state that you disagree with the accrued debt. Filing this application within the established period (usually fifteen days from the date of receipt of a copy of the order) automatically cancels it, and the case is transferred to the general procedure of judicial review. This allows you to fully protect your rights.
