Article 553 of Commercial Code

English translation

The limitation of an action claiming the value of a cheque shall not prevent the holder from claiming restitution of unjust enrichment from the drawer who did not provide funds for payment, or provided them and recovered all or part thereof. This provision shall apply to the drawer if those obligated to pay the value of the cheque have recourse against him. Fourth Section Civil Claims in Cheque Offences
Arabic original
لا يحول تقادم دعوى المطالبة بقيمة الشيك دون الحامل ومطالبة الساحب الذي لم يقدم مقابل الوفاء أو قدمه واسترده كله أو بعضه برد ما أثري به دون حق. ويسري هذا الحكم على الساحب إذا رجع عليه الملتزمون بوفاء قيمة الشيك.
