The lawyer allowed a change in judicial practice after the decision of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation in the Dolina case

The decision of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation in the case of singer Larisa Dolina's apartment should fundamentally affect judicial practice in relation to similar claims throughout the country. Lawyer Timur Matveev told Izvestia about this on December 16.

"I think that this will be the end of the story of challenging deals on such grounds. And, most likely, the Supreme Court will bring this issue to the plenum, on how the courts should further consider these claims," he explained.

Talking about cases where people bought apartments and were left with nothing after the sellers refused the deal, citing incapacity or pressure from scammers, the lawyer clarified that the way the seller manages the money received from the sale of real estate does not concern the buyer in any way. Matveev stressed that the buyer of the apartment should not be responsible for other people's actions.

The lawyer explained that Dolina had most likely put an end to the case. Representatives of the singer may try to appeal the decision of the Supreme Court by sending a complaint to the Deputy Chairman of the Supreme Court, but, according to Matveev, this is unlikely to be successful.

The Supreme Court overturned the decision in the case of the sale of Larisa Dolina's apartment. The main thing

On December 16, the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation recognized ownership of the disputed apartment as Dolina za Lurie. In addition, the court also decided to cancel all decisions of the lower courts in the case of the sale of the apartment of the actress.

Dolina did not come to the Supreme Court on December 16 to consider the complaint of the buyer of her apartment. During the trial in the case of the sale of the apartment by Dolina, it became known that the initial value of the property was 130 million rubles. The parties came to the cost of 112 million rubles during the negotiations.

In March 2025, the Khamovnichesky District Court of the capital considered the counterclaims of the singer and Lurie and ruled in favor of Dolina. More than 69 million rubles were recovered in favor of the actress.

Lurie's appeal was dismissed on September 8. The Moscow City Court recognized the decision on ownership of the disputed apartment for Dolina, her daughter and granddaughter as legitimate. On November 27, the Second Court of Cassation rejected Lurie's complaint and again retained ownership of the property for the artist.

Lurie filed a complaint against the lower court's decisions with the Supreme Court. In her lawsuit against the buyer of the apartment, the singer stated that she had not shown reasonable care when concluding the transaction. At the same time, Lurie had no doubts about the singer's sanity. The girl's lawyer said that she rejected Dolina's offer of a settlement agreement as unacceptable.
