Prosecutors defend return of premises worth over UAH 2.5 million to Lviv community in appeal
The intervention and principled position of the Lviv Regional Prosecutor’s Office in the court of appeal prevented the illegal disposal of non-residential premises in the central part of the city from the ownership of the Lviv territorial community.
The premises in question are located on the ground floor of a residential building in the Frankivsk district of Lviv. The area of the property is about 82 sq m. Its value is over UAH 2.5 million.
The prosecutors established that the above-mentioned premises had been illegally withdrawn from municipal ownership as a result of unlawful amendments to the State Register of Real Estate Rights.
The court of first instance agreed with the prosecutors’ position, granted the claim and ordered the return of the non-residential premises to communal ownership.
The defendant, disagreeing with the decision, filed an appeal. However, due to the principled position of the prosecutors, the court of appeal upheld the previous decision.
Thus, the non-residential premises will be returned to the ownership of the territorial community of Lviv.
