As we approach the halfway point of 2023, the overload of litigation continues unbated and this issue remains as concerning as ever. On one hand, the courts are still very busy, and on the other hand, we see a number of innovations coming to balance this busyness. In addition, with the rapid globalization of the world, steps are being taken to globalize litigation.

In this issue of Litigation Quarterly, we have compiled decisions of Turkish courts as well as foreign courts that had global significance in the past year. We have also covered developments in the field of litigation for the last three months, the new trends in the world of litigation, as well as recent data that has shed light on the past year of litigation.

Inheritance Fraud Lawsuits: Legal Nature, Requirements, And Litigation Process

Inheritance fraud (muris muvazaası) is one of the most common inheritance-related disputes in Turkish legal practice. It typically arises when a deceased person (the decedent) transfers real property to one heir by disguising what is, in reality, a gratuitous transfer (gift) as a sale or a contract of maintenance until death, with the intention of depriving the remaining heirs of their inheritance rights. Although such transactions appear legally valid on their face, they do not reflect the parties' true intentions and are therefore evaluated under the legal principles governing sham transactions (muvazaa).
