01

Subject

This summary addresses judicial treatment of recovery requests in the context of financial leasing and the procedure for urgent applications, including appellate scrutiny of urgent orders under civil procedure rules and the statutory concept of financial leasing.

02

Summary

- An appellate court reviews urgent orders by scrutiny under Article 33(1) of the Civil Procedure Law; summoning parties is not required unless the court decides otherwise, and there is no statutory requirement for an oral hearing. - The legislature did not limit financial leasing activities or list specific contracts; the definition in Article 2 applies and a contract qualifies as a financial lease if two statutory conditions are met, regardless of whether a purchase option exists. - Where the lessor has enabled the lessee to use land and a subsequently erected building that remains the lessor's property under the financial lease terms, a recovery request based on Article 22 is treated as an urgent application governed by Articles 31–33 of the Civil Procedure Law. - Emergency-judge jurisdiction requires both urgency and that the interim measure does not prejudice the substance of the right; the interim decision must be temporary and not alter the parties' legal positions in a way that decides the substantive dispute. - The emergency judge may examine the subject-matter to the extent necessary to assess the interim relief request; such examination must be incidental and non‑decisive, preserving the substantive dispute for the competent tribunal.

03

Practical significance

- An appellate court may fully scrutinize and decide on an urgent order or modify it without being obliged to remit the request to the emergency judge if it annuls the order. - Recovery requests arising under Article 22 in financial leasing contexts are handled as urgent applications when the statutory conditions are met, invoking the relevant interim-relief regime. - Emergency judges must balance the need for provisional protection with safeguarding parties' substantive rights through a limited, non-conclusive review of the subject matter.
