Appeal upheld the ruling
The Ninth Arbitration Appellate Court rejected LLC Yeralash's appeal against the ruling obliging the company to hand over documents on its business activities to Maxim Grachevsky. The ruling has entered into legal force. This was reported by RIA Novosti citing court materials.
The essence of the dispute
Maxim Grachevsky is the son and heir of Boris Grachevsky, former artistic director of the children's film magazine. Since October 2025 he has owned nearly 12.5% of LLC Yeralash. After receiving the stake, he requested documents on the company's operations starting from 2021. The plaintiff expressed doubts about the effectiveness of the company's management: according to his statement, after the death of his father, who headed the company in 2019–2020, the situation changed — virtually the entire staff was laid off and the financial and economic results deteriorated. It was not possible to obtain all the information voluntarily, after which the heir turned to the Moscow Arbitration Court, citing a corporate conflict.
What the company must disclose
In June, the court partially granted Maxim Grachevsky's claims. Yeralash was ordered to hand over staff lists, documents of rights to movable and immovable property, statements of cash flows on bank accounts, accounting reports since 2021, contracts, and information on unilateral transactions. The company's attempt to appeal the ruling was unsuccessful: on October 20 the appellate instance left it unchanged.
The heir's other lawsuit
Earlier, Life.ru reported that Yeralash co-owner Arkady Grigoryan refused to comment on another lawsuit by Maxim Grachevsky, in which the heir seeks to recover more than 39 million rubles from the businessman.
