Motion

On March 27, 2025, Lisa, S.A. filed a motion before the Eleventh Civil Circuit Court in Expediente No. 556-99 to reiterate its pending requests for the return of dividends seized under a precautionary measure and placed in the custody of Juan Luis Bosch Gutierrez as judicial depositary. The motion recalls that the underlying ordinary process concluded with Judgment No. 42 of July 11, 2008—later modified by the First Superior Tribunal in August 2012—and became final after cassation. Order No. 2277-2018 of December 5, 2018 ordered that the $894,718.00 owed to Villamorey, S.A. be extinguished through compensation with dividends belonging to Lisa, S.A. and retained by Villamorey anywhere in the world. The filing again underscores that Official Notice No. 29 of January 3, 2025 confirmed the lifting of the embargo in the related executive case brought by BDT Investments Inc., meaning no precautionary measure remains that could justify retaining Lisa, S.A.’s dividends.

Lisa, S.A. therefore requests that the Court formally notify Juan Luis Bosch Gutierrez—judicial depositary under Article 536(4) of the Judicial Code—that his role has concluded and he must report on his actions and return all retained dividends, now withheld for approximately sixteen years. The motion adds that during a recent criminal hearing related to Lisa, S.A.’s complaint against Bosch for actions taken as depositary, Bosch’s counsel attempted to mislead magistrates by claiming the order to return the funds is not final. Lisa, S.A. insists that Order No. 2277-2018 has been final since 2018 and emphasizes the Court’s duty to compel Bosch’s appearance and, if necessary, declare him in contempt. The company requests that all necessary communications be issued to ensure Villamorey, S.A. and Bosch comply with the long-standing obligation to release the withheld dividends.
