Economic court cases in Uzbekistan to be reviewed in a simplified procedure
Recently, the Legislative Chamber of Oliy Majlis held its following session. A number of draft laws aimed at legal support of reforms in various spheres of the country's life were considered.
At the beginning of the meeting, deputies discussed in detail the draft law “On amendments and additions to the Economic Procedural Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan in connection with the adoption of additional measures to improve the rating of the Republic of Uzbekistan in the annual report “Doing Business” of the World Bank and International Finance Corporation”.
In addition, the draft law envisages introducing norms of simplified dispute resolution of small disputes by economic courts to the Economic Procedural Code.
According to it, when a taxpayer claims to pay tax arrears by his property, and if the sum of the claim is not more than 20 times the minimum monthly wage for legal entities and in the amount of not exceeding 5 times the MMW for individual entrepreneurs, the lawsuit should be resolved by a simplified procedure.
Earlier, it was reported that the court's decisions would be posted on the Internet.
