This is the result of a hearing in the Commercial Court regarding a dispute between two companies worth 25,5.

Judge Mladen Grdinić gave MA's lawyer Boris Ćorsović five days to prepare documentation and scheduled the continuation of the dispute for March 12.
MA in bankruptcy before the Commercial Court claims 25,5 thousand euros from the company "ToMontenegro" based on the use of their equipment and vehicles.
In November 2021, the public executor Vladimir Vujotić, due to the dispute between these two companies based on the use of MA vehicles and materials, from June and July of that year, issued a decision on execution, according to which the company "To Montenegro" needs to pay the claims of 25.553 euros. "To Montenegro" filed an objection to this execution, which was accepted by the Commercial Court, so according to the decision of the Council of that court, the proposal for execution can be considered a lawsuit.
During his testimony, Đekić stated that he worked as a mechanic at MA, until bankruptcy was introduced in that company in April 2021, after which he was hired as an associate of the bankruptcy administrator as a technical coordinator.
He claims that "ToMontenegro" used the vehicles, hangar and service equipment of MA from January to November 2021, and that he believes this because his former colleagues did that work. He pointed out that he did not know if they were involved with "To Montenegro" during the introduction of bankruptcy in MA, but that they were later. He also stated that he thought the workers were working for "To Montenegro", because they had to do preparatory work for the plane's flight.
"In addition to the above, I am not aware that they had concluded any employment contracts with the management of the defendant," said Đokić.
Gojković stated that he was an aviation engineer until the introduction of bankruptcy, and he also said that his colleagues, who were hired by "ToMontenegro", used motor vehicles, parts, materials from the warehouse in the hangar of the Podgorica airport.
He explained that he knew that they worked for the newly formed company because he had daily communication with them, and that there were several engineers, the same number of warehouse workers and ten mechanics. He stated that their engagement was necessary to prepare for the flight, and that the planes were prepared at the end of May and that they took off in June 2021.
He pointed out that he did not know the status of the workers after the introduction of bankruptcy because he did not come to work.
Attorney MA had no objections, while Radović pointed out that the statements of Đekić and Gojković differ from the allegations in the response to the lawsuit, but with written evidence.
