FBK Legal’s Team Defends Interests of Yamaha Motor CIS in Court

FBK Legal's team (Elena Bokareva, Partner, Ivan Zvonkov and Ekaterina Shevtsova, Senior Lawyers) defended the interests of Yamaha Motor CIS in a dispute with the Chief Directorate of the Russian Emergencies Ministry over deregistration of watercraft.

Yamaha Motor CIS was unable to deregister the watercraft with the Russian Emergencies Ministry in an administrative order, which resulted in tax and ownership burdens for the equipment that had been sold but not re-registered by the new owner.  

The lawyers at FBK Legal analysed the case and documentation, as well as the legislative regulation in the sphere of watercraft registration. At the pre-trial stage, the team received official responses from the Russian Emergencies Ministry. Following this, a lawsuit was filed to deregister the watercraft, which was favourably resolved later on.
