Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 138

Positive and negative administrative decisions. The nature of each. - Advertising public posts does not create a legal status in them for applicants. The reason: this status arises only by an appointment decision, and refraining from making it is not deemed a negative decision, given the administration’s discretionary power to issue it and to choose the time for filling vacant posts. Its implication. The procedures preceding appointment do not bind the authority competent to appoint, which may abandon them and leave the post vacant even if the applicant satisfies the conditions for appointment to it.
