The Dzerzhinsky Federal Court of St. Petersburg repeatedly satisfied one of the claims of construction companies against the ballerina Anastasia Volochkova for 1.2 million rubles.

However, the City Court of St. Petersburg canceled the decision of the district court and returned the lawsuit for a new consideration.
During the court hearing, 2 witnesses were heard on Friday - a master who made forms for a chandelier in the form of a swan and lamps, as well as an employee of the same company who installed lighting devices in the Petersburg apartment of the ballerina.
Based on the results of the meeting, the court issued a decision obliging Volochkova to pay 1 million 200 thousand 440 rubles and 18 thousand rubles of state duty to the company, Interfax reports.
As expected, the consideration of another 3 claims of firms that carried out repairs in the apartment of Volochkova on Italian Street will begin in April, when the examination appointed by the court will be completed. Examinations conducted by the North-Western Regional Center for Forensic Expertise should establish the cost of finishing work carried out by construction companies.

The apartment "resembles theatrical sidelines: columns, a lot of stucco molding, decorative jewelry, stained glass, chandeliers and sconces."
The general design project was made by the Moscow company Alviko, chandeliers and sconces were also manufactured by the metropolitan company Borey-Techno, the St. Petersburg LLC Iskra was engaged in curtains, lambrequins and cornices, and all stained glasses in the apartment were created by the famous Moscow master Dorokhin. Anastasia Volochkova had no complaints about the quality of repair and decoration, but she did not pay the bill.
At first, representatives of firms tried to settle the case peacefully. They asked the representatives of Volochkova to return the money. But they were refused, and the representatives of Volochkova generally pretended that they did not understand what they were talking about, and stated that this is a provocation.
The first application to the court was submitted in December 2003. The judge of the Dzerzhinsky court of the Central District of St. Petersburg Oleg Kutyev, as a measure to ensure the claim, imposed a renovated apartment of the ballerina.
