To file for an uncontested divorce, the marriage must have lasted at least 1 year, and spouses must agree on the financial consequences and child custody. Once the protocol is prepared, it is usually finalized in a single hearing (within 1-2 months).
The court determines custody based on the best interests of the child, their age, and educational opportunities. Alimony is assessed by the judge based on the fault ratios, economic situations of the parties, and the needs of the common child.
By law, it is mandatory for crimes requiring a minimum prison sentence of more than 5 years, or if the suspect is a minor or disabled. Even when not mandatory, having legal representation is crucial to prevent loss of rights.
HAGB means that a prison sentence of 2 years or less is suspended, and if the defendant does not commit an intentional crime during a 5-year probation period, the conviction is annulled and dropped. It does not appear on criminal records.
The employee must have worked for the same employer for at least 1 full year, and the employment contract must be terminated unjustly by the employer or for valid reasons by the employee (retirement, military service, marriage, etc.). It is calculated based on 30 days of gross wages per full year.
An employee whose contract is terminated must apply to a mediator within 1 month from the notification of termination. For reinstatement, the workplace must employ at least 30 workers, and the employee must have at least 6 months of seniority.
Yes, custody decisions are not final. A custody modification case can be filed if the child's best interests change (e.g., the custodial parent remarries, becomes unable to care for the child, or the child wishes to stay with the other parent).
Under the Turkish Civil Code, if an engagement is broken, gifts of unusual material value (jewelry, etc.) can be reclaimed. If the gift cannot be returned exactly, its monetary equivalent can be demanded.
No, although property division can be requested in the same petition as a divorce case, the court first waits for the divorce to be finalized. After the divorce decision becomes final, the property division case is heard.
This depends on whether the crime is subject to complaint. In crimes subject to complaint, like insult or simple injury, withdrawing the complaint drops the case. However, in public cases like homicide or extortion, the case continues even if the complaint is withdrawn.
Upon completion of the sentence, clearing the criminal record can be requested under certain conditions. Once cleared, these records are moved to the archive. Clearing archive records requires the passage of periods specified by law.
An appeal against an arrest warrant or the continuation of detention can be filed to a higher court within 7 days of learning of the decision. The appeal argues that the conditions for arrest (flight risk, tampering with evidence, etc.) have not been met.
Overtime can be proven by workplace records (attendance sheets) and statements from witnesses who worked during the same period. If unpaid, the employee can rightfully terminate the contract and claim severance and other receivables.
An employee subjected to mobbing can rightfully terminate the employment contract, provided they prove the situation. In this case, in addition to severance pay, they may also claim moral damages and discrimination compensation if conditions are met.
Wages for annual leave periods that the employee earned but could not use are calculated over the current gross wage at the date the employment contract ends. It is not legally possible to pay annual leave wages in advance while working.
