of a land parcel of 0.66 acres

cadastral number 28:136:254:2001,

along with the residential building,

automotive works shed,

repair garage and greenhouse.

Mr Sergeyev petitioned the Zagorye

District Court to repeal this Decree.

The Court ruled to deny the petition.

Mr Sergeyev then petitioned

Pribrezhny Town Court to appeal.

During proceedings, Mr Sergeyev

insisted the court ruling be revoked.

The Town Administration

rejected the appeal

and upheld the ruling

of the Zagorye District Court.

Mr Sergeyev states the initial ruling

violated procedural regulations

and therefore disputes the conclusion

that the seizure of the land parcel

is lawful.

He says the Administration did not

meet the deadline for notifying him

and violated the procedure

for determining the purchase price.

He also contends

that, when determining the price,

the court did not consider

an independent evaluation he submitted,

which values the property higher

than determined by the Administration.

Me also states

that the Administration

violated civil law.

Mr Sergeyev was not notified

of the upcoming seizure a year in advance

due to which he incurred expenses

related to improving his property.

Also, the purchase price did not consider

his loss of business revenue

as well as his liabilities

to third parties.

The Court ruled:
by Decree No. 1295

pf Pribrezhny Town Administration,

the land parcel shall be seized

to build a town communications centre.

The Decree determines the purchase

price of the land and structures

as 639,540.27 roubles.

The purchase price was determined

based on an evaluation.

Per Mr Sergeyev's request,

Alliance Ltd estimated the value

of liabilities

for the loss of agricultural production

due to the seizure of the land parcel

of 0.66 acres for the town's needs.

The market value of the liabilities

constitutes 3.5 million roubles.

The court questions...

...and deems it invalid.

The Court upholds the purchase price

of 639,540.27 roubles

as determined

by the Town Administration's evaluation.

The Court rejects the statement that

the purchase procedure was violated.

The case file contains letters

about the purchase and testimony

of Town Administration officials

stating that Mr Sergeyev

had been notified

of the seizure of the land parcel.

The Court casts doubt

on Mr Sergeyev's claims

that he didn't receive

these notifications.

Having examined Mr Sergeyev's appeal,

Pribrezhny Town Court has concluded

that Mr Sergeyev failed to establish

grounds to repeal the court ruling

pursuant to article 330

of the Civil Procedural Code.

As per articles 320-335 of the Civil

Procedural Code, the court denies
