FOICA vs. Abovyan Municipality
On September 14, 2005 FOICA applied to the mayor of Abovyan city Mr. K. Israyelyan asking to provide the following information:
1. Copies of all the decisions made by the elders council during the second quarter of 2005
2. Copy of 2005 budget and its implementation report for the second quarter.
Not receiving any answer, on November 11th, 2005 FOICA regional lawyer Mr. Robert Ghazaryan petitioned to the court to appeal against the mayor’s inactivity. The court case is still in the process.
The lawyer of FOICA took back the claim. The Mayor of Abovyan provided the complete information of 58 pages in August 12, 2006. Thus it took about 11 months to get a positive result.
