While debates continue at Antalya Fishermen’s Shelter, the Antalya 1st Civil Court of First Instance rejected the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry’s request for the trustee appointed to the Antalya Fishermen’s Shelter to be appointed as an administrative trustee. The court stated that the previously appointed trustees were only tasked with convening an extraordinary general assembly.
A critical decision emerged in the ongoing legal process between S.S. Yeni Liman Su Ürünleri Kooperatifi and S.S. Yeşil Antalya Su Ürünleri Kooperatifi in Antalya. The court did not approve the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry’s request to grant administrative authority to the 3 trustees previously assigned to convene the general assembly.
The decision recalled the scope of the court’s previous ruling, stating that the transfer of authority regarding the cooperative’s management was not possible. It was explained that the said trustees could only be appointed to call a general assembly pursuant to Articles 427 and 432 of the Turkish Civil Code and did not hold management authority.
The court rejected the Ministry’s request, emphasizing that the aforementioned individuals were not granted the capacity of representative or administrative trustee. It was announced that the appeal process is open for 2 weeks from the notification of the decision.
Thus, while the current management in both cooperatives continues to remain in office, it became clear that the appointed trustees are only responsible for initiating the general assembly process. However, the trustee administration has not yet convened the general assembly for a year. This decision, given while debates continue, reminded the trustee administration of its duty.
Fishermen stated, “The decisions taken by the trustee administration for the fishermen’s shelter are invalid, they made unlawful decisions and these decisions are invalid.”
