Court dismisses 40-million baht lawsuit against 222 Buri Ram farmers

By Thai PBS

 

 

The Nang Rong provincial court in Buri Ram province on Tuesday dismissed a 40 million baht lawsuit against 222 farmers by a fertilizer selling company on the ground that all the defendants have not signed any contract to buy fertilizer from the plaintiff.

 

The lawsuit was instituted to the court by Deesing Thaveechoke limited partnership against the 222 farmers, accusing them of breach of contract to buy fertilizer worth about 40 million baht from the plaintiff under the state-sponsored Occupation Promotion Project for Buri Ram People 2015.

 

The court ruled that the defendants were not a direct party in the contract with the plaintiff and they had never engaged in any talk with the plaintiff about buying fertilizer from it.

then it was a frivolous lawsuit and should never even gotten this far; company should fire it's lawyers

The Company should be fined heavily , as it is they who employed the  lawyers.

Wasting The Courts , and  the citizens  time should have a price .

 

If Im not mistaken this is 'The Big Boys' trying to intimidate poor farmers .

"You buy from us , or our Company will %@#& you up in the courts , and you know we always get away with this sort of stuff over you ungrateful  peasants !"
