Kreenholmi 33: debt, late-payment interest and costs awarded by default

Judgment · Viru Maakohus · First instance

KORTERIÜHISTU KREENHOLMI 33 · 80175469

Entry into force has not been reverified

Participants and roles: Claimant – KORTERIÜHISTU KREENHOLMI 33; Defendant – owner XX

How it started · editorial summary

Failure to respond to the served claim led to a default award of debt and late-payment interest, including continuing accrual.

The dispute and the court’s decision

The apartment association Kreenholmi 33 brought a claim against owner XX for utility and maintenance charges. The defendant was duly served with the documents and allowed 14 days to respond, with a warning about a default judgment. No response arrived; the court treated the claimant’s factual allegations as admitted under the default procedure. The court awarded the principal, accrued late-payment interest and litigation costs. Further late-payment interest of 0,07% per day accrues on unpaid principal until repayment. Accrued and continuing late-payment interest are distinct parts of the result. The judgment is immediately enforceable. The award itself does not confirm actual payment.

Outcome of this decision

Grant the claim by default: award principal, accrued late-payment interest, continuing late-payment interest of 0,07% per day on unpaid principal until repayment, and litigation costs against XX. The judgment is immediately enforceable.
