Monitorio petition for unpaid service charges owed to a comunidad de propietarios (LPH art. 21 + LEC 812-818)

Monitorio petition for unpaid service charges owed to a comunidad de propietarios (LPH art. 21 + LEC 812-818) is filed with Juzgado de Primera Instancia (Decanato) - petición monitoria sin abogado ni procurador (LEC art. 814.2). With Managora you do it 100% online: you answer a few questions, sign a digital mandato (power of representation) and we draft, sign and file your demanda (claim) for you. Estimated total cost: €49 to €49. Official tasa (government fee): The initial petition of the proceso monitorio carries no court fee. If the debtor objects, the later contested stage may give rise to court and representation costs that are not included in this service.

We prepare and file the initial petition of the proceso monitorio (Spanish order-for-payment procedure) to claim from the defaulting owner the service charges and special levies they owe the comunidad de propietarios (owners' association). This is the procedure of art. 814.2 LEC: it requires neither a lawyer nor a procurador, which is why we can handle it from start to finish. We start from the debt certificate approved at the owners' meeting (LPH art. 21) and include statutory interest. If the debtor neither pays nor objects within 20 days, the letrado de la Administración de Justicia (senior court clerk) issues a decree closing the monitorio. If they do object, the matter moves to the contested stage, which requires a procurador (except for amounts under 2.000 euros) and is not included in this service.
