After intervention of the Moscow Region Business Ombudsman Vladimir Golovnev, the debt claimant for municipal contract was settled.
In coordination with the Moscow Region Business Ombudsman Vladimir Golovnev and the Moscow Region Control Office the debt under municipal contract was paid in full to an entrepreneur for the services provided.
On July 2020 an application of his rights violation from the CEO of LLC was submitted to the Moscow Region Commissioner for the Protection of the Entrepreneur's rights Vladimir Golovnev.
In particular, a businessman informed of wrongful inaction of authorities of Zvenigorod municipal entity and of non-fulfilment of payment obligations under municipal contracts.
According to the data of the Unified Information System in procurement (EIS), MBU (the service Customer) and LLC (the service Provider) have concluded tree contracts in February and March of 2018 year for natural sand and technical salt delivery in total amount of 240 835, 46 rubles.
These contracts have been terminated previously by agreement of the parties. Thus, it was indicated that the Provider can claim the payment for the items delivered, and the Customer must pay in full for the goods actually delivered. It is about several sums of three contracts payment: 15 680, 00 rubles, 185 813,50 rubles, 39 341, 96 rubles.
"After review of all documents supplied and taking into account the circumstances, I had issued a letter to the Moscow Region Office of the Auditor General for further consideration of entrepreneur's application for timely response required by legislation of Russian Federation"- informed the Moscow Region Business Ombudsman Vladimir Golovnev.
After examination of the documents, the Moscow Region Control Office has found that pre-trial claims in amount of 272 988,91 rubles still unsatisfied, (including percentage for the funds used in amount of 32 153, 45 rubles). As it turned out, the debt had arisen because of difficult financial situation of the Customer.
In July this year the sums for two contracts were transferred to the claimant account with obligation to pay the rest of money by 27.08.20.
As a result, the debt was paid in full and in time by the Zvenigorod municipal entity.
"In this case a conflict was settled by the agreement of parties in pre-trial way. The applicant did not apply to the regional Arbitral Tribunal for the debt and percentage of funds used- that is more than 32 000 rubles at all. However, the Customer could avoid not only time wasting but extra financial losses also. He was lucky the applicant's patience seemed endless, having waited for the payment over a year.
Due to prescription, the Moscow Region Control Office did not make a report of administrative offence (part 1 of the article 7.32.5 of CAVL of Russian Federation-- breach of time and payment procedure). Other way, the Customer could pay a fine equal 30 000 to 50 000 rubles in addition "- clarified the result of the appeal consideration the Moscow Region Business Ombudsman Vladimir Golovnev.
