Court decides on evacuation of the legendary Köpi 137 in Berlin!
On Wednesday afternoon, the Berlin Regional Court will decide on a controversial eviction action against the legendary left-wing alternative residential project "Köpi 137" in Berlin-Mitte. The owner company terminated the residents last year and justifies this with the assertion of an acute risk of collapse. However, the residents deny these allegations and refuse to undress from the renovated old building, which in their opinion is still habitable. The procedure takes place in the Moabit Criminal Court to prevent possible tumults, which occurred in comparable processes in the past, such as rbb24 reported .
legal disputes about alternative residential projects
At the same time, a similar legal dispute over the left alternative house project "Lieig 34" in Berlin-Friedrichshain causes a sensation. Here the Berlin Regional Court has already made a judgment that obliges the residents to evacuate. The court decided that the lease contract for the property had already expired on December 31, 2018, which means that the residents no longer have legal claims on the property. The defendant association must also pay around 20,000 euros for costs in connection with the administration and management, such as Jura.cc reported .
Both processes are part of a wider conflict on alternative residential projects in Berlin, where the legal conditions are often controversial. While the courts are increasingly deciding in favor of the owners, the affected residents are decisively shown in their resistance. The current decisions could have far -reaching consequences for similar projects in the region.
