The dispute and the court’s decision
Narva linn, A. Puškini tn 45a korteriühistu, named in the source as KÜ Puškini tn 45A, claimed 677.43 euros in debt and 45.12 euros in interest from owner XX. The defendant disputed interest, referring to a credit for another unit and the order of payment allocation. By the hearing the association acknowledged payment of principal but maintained its interest claim.
On the association’s statement and a payment document, the court found that 45.12 euros in interest had been treated as paid on 14 June 2012. Principal was paid during proceedings. The entire claim was therefore dismissed.
The court did not decide the dispute about statutory payment allocation and correspondence because the claimed sums had already been paid. Each party bears its own costs. This was not a finding that interest charges are generally invalid; subsequent appeals have not been checked.
Outcome of this decision
The claim for principal and interest already paid was dismissed; each party bears its own litigation costs.
