No presumption for an extension of a loan can be derived by the mere fact of giving money to another person
18 December 2015

According to Decision № 361 from 11/11/2015, case № 1864/2015, the Supreme Court of Cassation held that the claimant shall provide clear evidence that a sum of money given to another person is namely a loan and is not handed over on another basis.
The conclusion that the amount of money is transfered under a loan relationship should be based on careful consideration of the concrete evidence in each case, i.e. cross-matching statements of the parties to conclude a loan agreement and the conditions for return of the ammount borrowed.
