She said she had sold the car to the defendant, but he delayed the transfer of the registration to his name.

The man later committed traffic offences with fines worth Dh22,850 while driving the car, but refused to clear the fines, prompting the woman to drag him to court.

In her lawsuit, the woman requested that the man be obliged to transfer the car ownership to his names. She also asked that all the traffic violations the man committed be registered against his driving license.

In court, the young man admitted to committing the traffic fines. He said he delayed transferring ownership of the car to his names because his residence visa has expired.

After hearing from all parties, court ordered the man to transfer the car ownership to his names and to clear all the traffic fines.

He was also told to pay for the woman’s legal expenses.
