The Commission for Resolution of Real Property Disputes (CRRPD) is an independent agency of the Government of Iraq, established to redress certain wrongful takings of real property, including primary rights in rem (e.g. ownership, usage, residence, long-term lease, etc.), during the period from 17 July 1968 to 9 April 2003.
The jurisdiction, structure and procedures of operation of the CRRPD are governed by the new Statute of the Commission for Resolution of Real Property Disputes, which annulled CPA Regulation 12, as of 6 March 2006.
Why Participate In the CRRPD Process?
Through the CRRPD process you can:
1) Claim a real property right you lost wrongfully;
2) Confirm your right to the real property you currently use or own; or
3) Defend your right to own or use real property against someone who claims it.
The CRRPD was established to provide a legal mechanism for resolving property disputes in an organized, fair and consistent manner regardless of the parties’ ethnic background, sect, religion, or gender.
If, instead of using the CRRPD process, you return to your property that is occupied by others, and force its occupants to vacate it, you could be committing a criminal offense.
