1st Court of Instance:
- Diamond Resorts - In Fuengirola first court of instance No. 2, the judge declared the contract null and void under laws 42/1998 and 04/2012 requirements due to a lack of information surrounding the accommodation and contract duration. Amount awarded - £15,245.

Provincial Court:
- Anfi - In the provincial court las Palmas de Gran Canaria No. 5, the judge overturned the decision from the first court of instance. The judge's understanding was that if Anfi cancelled a contract due to non-payment of maintenance fees, there are no grounds for a claim, however, this is not correct, and the case was amended in our client's favour. Amount awarded - £42,987.
Appeals:
- Club La Costa x 2 The Court of Appeal in Malaga has confirmed these judgements from the first instance which declared the contract null due to laws 42/1998 & 04/2012. Amounts awarded - £24,774 and £21,414.
We also had 3 further wins, one against Martex, RCI & SSB Marketing, two further Anfi judgements.

Well done to the team at M1 Legal and congratulations to their clients.
