Summary
In the judgment presided over by Registrar Mr. Umar Azmeh of the Qatar Financial Centre Civil and Commercial Court, the Defendant, LAMAISON HOTEL LLC, was ordered to pay Claimant SPINE LLC QAR 60,720. The case, which began with a default judgment on 5 August 2025 for QAR 231,919, saw multiple appeals and applications by the Defendant, all of which were denied. The main contention involved costs and interest, with the Claimant arguing for QAR 108,119.60 in costs due to the Defendant’s lack of engagement and delays. The Registrar found the Defendant's offer of QAR 5,000 derisory and noted that pre-action work is recoverable.
