17. FOICA vs. the Village Municipality of Lenughi

July 3, 2009

On February 3, 2009, the FOICA had referred to the community leader of Lenughi in the region of Armavir asking for the following information:
1. A copy of the 2008 community budget,
2. Copies of the decisions made by the community councilors about allotting land in the 2nd semester of 2008.

The request was left unanswered. On the 1st of April, 2009 the FOICA applied to the RA Administrative Court with a claim to oblige the village municipality of Lenughi to provide the information. On the 2nd of July the case of the FOICA vs. the village municipality of Lenughi was heard.

Since the mayor’s office of Lenughi had provided the requested information before the court hearing, the FOICA renounced the claim in the court.
