The Judiciary informs about the recent ruling issued by the Audiencia Provincial de Lugo, in which it rules in favour of the clients, so that the bank will return half of the notarial, administrative and appraisal expenses paid at the time of signing the mortgage.
It is the first time that they have spoken about this issue, affirming that the action of nullity is "imprescriptible" and, on that premise, it feels the criterion that the restitution derived from the effects of the nullity, that is to say, the term to claim the money to financial institutions is subject to "the generic term of five years."
The Hearing places the beginning of the calculation to demand the return of these mortgage expenses on January 23, 2019.
