Today we are excited to be sharing with you some pretty significant news from the High Court in Mallorca.
In March last year our German clients lost their claim against MVCI Holidays and MVCI Management. To our surprise and in direct contradiction of the law established by the Supreme Court the Judge from the First Instance court 18 Mallorca ruled in Marriott’s favour referring to legislation which he interpreted as allowing Marriott to continue with its “pre-existing contracts” and to keep selling floating weeks and in perpetuity weeks beyond 1999.
OF COURSE WE APPEALED THIS DECISION.
The law regarding floating weeks and in perpetuity weeks has been firmly established by the Supreme Court so of course we challenged this decision.
Today we are delighted to share with you the news that the High Court No 3 Mallorca ruled in our favour and confirmed that our client’s contracts with MVCI Holidays and MVCI Management should be declared null and void and that a FULL REFUND should be made.
Both our clients contracts have been declared null and void and in passing sentence the Judge declared that our German clients should receive a FULL REFUND PLUS DOUBLE THE AMOUNTS PAID IN DEPOSITS WHICH AMOUNTS TO 36.826€ PLUS INTEREST PLUS COSTS – WHAT A FANTASTIC RESULT!
Congratulations again to our German clients and to our Claims Consultant Evi Richter and our lawyers Eva Gutierrez and Cristina Batista.
This ruling gives absolute clarity to any First Instance Judges who were still unclear on some of the established points of law.
As Europe’s leading and most successful timeshare litigators we look forward to bringing you more Marriott victories.
