Tanıma ve Tenfiz Davası (Bilgi Notu – 4.11.2021)

Tanıma ve Tenfiz Davası Nedir?

Yabancı devlet mahkemesi tarafından verilen mahkeme kararları tanıma ve tenfiz sürecinden geçirilmek suretiyle bir başka ülkede kesin hüküm ve kesin delil etkisine sahip olur.1

Tanıma Davası: Yabancı bir ülkede verilen mahkeme kararının kesin hüküm veya kesin delil olarak kabul edilmesini sağlamaya yönelik açılan dava türüdür. Tanıma davası icrası gerekmeyen hükümleri ihtiva eden mahkeme kararları için gereklidir.2

Tenfiz Davası: Yabancı mahkemelerce kişilerin özel hukuk ilişkilerine ilişkin dava sonucunda verilen, icrai nitelikli hükümler ihtiva eden kararlarının Türkiye'de de geçerli olmasını, hüküm ve sonuçlarını doğurmasını sağlayan dava türüdür. Tenfiz davasında, tanıma davasından farklı olarak kararda icrai nitelikli hüküm bulunmaktadır. Bu icrai nitelikli hükmün Türkiye'de de geçerli olmasını sağlamak için tenfiz davası açılmalıdır.3

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).
