Income declarations of Līga Krima and Vineta Riseva, sworn bailiffs working in Limbaži, show savings, investments and annual income above 100,000 euros. The regional newspaper Auseklis concludes that the post is one of the most lucrative legal jobs in the Vidzeme District Court area.
Auseklis, the newspaper of the Limbaži municipality in Latvia, has examined the income declarations of two sworn bailiffs working in Limbaži, Līga Krima and Vineta Riseva. Bailiffs are officials who see to the enforcement of court rulings. The publication indicates that the financial position of both officials has changed markedly since they began work.
From modest beginnings to considerable savings
According to the paper, Krima and Riseva took up the post with modest means. More than ten years later, their declarations show considerable savings and investments. The declarations also list annual income exceeding 100,000 euros.
A lucrative post in the region
On the basis of these figures, Auseklis concludes that the position of bailiff in the Vidzeme District Court area is evidently one of the most lucrative legal professions in the region.
The full article is published in the Auseklis newspaper and its e-edition, where additional material is available. The website carries only a short introduction, so further details of the declarations are not given in this summary.
