Can anybody help on how to work the Spanish Legal system regarding my problem ???.

Villa not completed after 5 years,no electricity or water,built on rustic land,land legal no licence to build ?.
Other 4 villas occupied,deeds signed over but villas supplied by generator and water tank on my land.

Builder Sky houses formerly @ Montessinos,now vanished,Directors Monserrate camera Alberola & beltasar Carlos Sanchez Fuentes.

Burofax sent to Builder and both directors,no response will not even answer the phone.

My solicitor Fuster & Associates in Murcia,advised taking civil action through court which started nov 7/07,to try and get my money back,solicitor advised
also to go for criminal proceedings,which would help the civil case along more quickly.I am now told that the solicitors require a signed statement from
me instructing them to carry on with the criminal action,which I am told will take precidence over the civil action and will cost me even more monry.
Papers were sent to court 2 months ago and are now stuck there no feed back of any description from any bory.
Is there a higher authority I can contact,or what has anybody else done in a similar situation.

Completly stuck now all advice greatfully welcome

KENW still in england after 6 years.

Thank you Maria

                         Lawyers have sent 4 Burofax one each to partners in Sky houses and one  each to both offices,no Reply was recieved from
                          anybody.
                          3 months ago lawyers met builder who agreed to  sign over deeds and pay compensation,to date have since been unable
                            contact builders or builders lawyer no one will answer telephone  calls.

                         We held off going to court in hope of a settlement because of the time it takes to go through the court and the costs involved.
                         It would appear that the only way forward is to take clvil action against Sky houses and directors to get a result if they have any
                         money which I think would be most unlikely.

                          On thr Surface  it would appear that I will end up with no Villa and loose the 200,000e i have paid out. another soft target????.

 5 years ago we purchased  a plot to build a villa,which has now been built but not finished,ie no water of electricity and no mains laid on.
  The reason being thet the land was rustic and while you can purchase the land,you cannot build without a licence,we were not told this.
A generator and water tank supplying the other 4 villas are in my garden originally paid for by the builder,he has now disappeared and  left
the site 18months ago the residents having to pay for the water and electricity generator and tank.
To Date we have paid somr 200,000E plus futher costs in this cuuntry,we cannot get the deeds to the land of villa because the builder
refuses to attend the notary with our solicitor to sign them over.
We are stuck in limbo now with our solicitor unable to force the builder to sign the papers,we should have moved in some  2 years ago but
the villa is still not finished to specification.
The builder was Sky Houses with an office in Montesinos,but is now closed.The main contacts were Monserrate Camera Alberola,
and Baltasar Carlos Sanchez Fuentes,they are both very difficult to track down.
My Wife and I are both pensioners and are at our wits end,any assistance,ideas,help,of advice most welcome

Yet another warning to would be purchasers seeking that dream in the sun,out in spain with all the so called legal help you are still  at the mercy
of crooked builders who have complete imunity to the spanish law
