Default judgment awarding a debt against one defendant

The short operative part concerns one defendant. A preserved subsequent judgment in the same case identifies the co-owners’ apartment and utility charges and imposes the same obligation jointly and severally on another defendant.

KÜ Kreenholmi 38A (now — Narva linn, Kreenholmi tn 38a korteriühistu). KÜ Kreenholmi 38A brought a debt claim against several defendants XX. This judgment grants it against only one of them. It gives no description or legal reasons for the principal claim, expressly relying on the possibility of issuing a default judgment without those parts. The preserved subsequent judgment in the same case, dated 5 July 2016, clarifies that the dispute concerned co-owners’ apartment and utility charges for 2012 through January 2015. The same obligation was later imposed jointly and severally on another defendant, without doubling the debt or state fee. These judgments do not establish payment.

The debt and fee were awarded against one defendant XX. A separate legal service for preparing the claim was not reimbursed because the court did not treat it as a cost of contractual representation in the proceedings. The judgment is immediately enforceable; it does not establish payment. The judgment of 5 July 2016 imposed the same debt and state-fee obligation jointly and severally on another defendant; it is not a second independent award of the same sum.
