The Legal Consequences of Enforcement Order was discussed at the Special Meeting

The offsite work meeting was held in Telavi among the representatives of Notary Chamber of Georgia, Tbilisi Court of Appeals and the National Bureau of Enforcement. The parties discussed the legal consequences of the enforcement order issued by a Notary during the court proceedings. A notary was granted the authority to issue an enforcement order since 2009, but the notary issued it only upon the pledge or mortgage agreements until 2012. In 2012, the competence of the notary increased and he/she had the right to issue an enforcement order on the basis of any contract related to the financial obligations. If a contract is concluded in the Notary, the condition of issuing the enforcement order is included in the agreement upon the consent of both parties.

If the party who has suffered loss appears to the notary, he will be able to receive the enforcement order in a few hours, while appearing to the court may take several months. In addition, the cost of receiving the enforcement order from the notary is much less.  Statistical data also shows the growing interest in the citizens, in 2010 - 429, in 2011 - 1 276, in 2012 - 534, in 2013 – 2954, in 2014 – 3017, in  2015 – 4453 and in 2016 - 5090 enforcement orders were issued.
