LAWSUIT ON ALIMIONY CLAIM WAS ACCEPTED FOR PROCEEDINGS
In February 2022, the beneficiary A.S. (the name has been changed) applied to New Generation Humanitarian NGO (hereinafter referred to as the NGNGO). The latter was divorced in 2018. She had one child during her marriage with her ex-husband. After divorce, the husband does not take care of the child.
Relevant legal advice was provided by NGNGO lawyer Shushan Khnkoyan. As a result, a lawsuit was filed on the claim for confiscation of alimony.
