Please see below a breakdown of the substantive results:
1st Court of Instance:

- Regency Limited (Taboo Inversiones) - Tabobo Inversiones once again is considered illegitimate, and the lawsuit is only against Regency Limited due to "legal doubts," but they do recognise it. Despite it being proven that Tabobo is responsible for maintenance and executes the contract, surprisingly they do not consider their legitimacy (Article 1.5 Law 42/1998), which is outrageous. Adrian (M1 Legal lawyer representing the case) will appeal and will include Marabú S.L., who owns the apartments. Adrian will also request a declaration of Regency Limited's assets in other enforcement proceedings, which is concerning them, we will see in due course what transpires, (law 42/1998) due to lack of contract period information. Amount awarded - $51,083.
- CLC Paradise Trading x 3 - At Arona court numbers one and four, the judge declared the contract in one case due to the lack of contract period information, the other two cases were for both lack of property and contract period details. . Amounts awarded - $12,504 $17,645, $18,256.
