State of Kuwait · Statutory text

Article 233 of Code of Criminal Procedure and Trials

English translation

The president of the court may, before or after ordering imprisonment for enforcement, grant the convicted person, at his request, a period of grace for payment or order payment of the amount in instalments, whenever he considers that the convicted person's circumstances justify this. In this case, he may order the signing of an undertaking secured by a surety if he considers there to be grounds for doing so. If enforcement by imprisonment has begun, the president of the court shall issue a decision releasing the convicted person whenever he agrees to grant him the period of grace or payment by instalments.
Arabic original
لرئيس المحكمة، قبل الأمر بالإكراه البدني أو بعده ان يمنح المحكوم عليه، بناء على طلبه، مهلة للسداد أو ان يأمر بتقسيط المبلغ على دفعات، متى رأى ان ظروف المحكوم عليه تبرر ذلك. وله في هذه الحالة ان يأمر بتوقيع تعهد مضمون بكفيل إذا رأى داعيا لذلك. وإذا كان قد بدأ التنفيذ بالإكراه البدني، أصدر رئيس المحكمة قرارا بإخلاء سبيل المحكوم عليه متى وافق على منحه المهلة أو التقسيط.
