Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 983

Procedures of committees investigating ministers and other perpetrators and accomplices pursuant to Law 88/1995 concerning the Court of Ministers. How to lodge a grievance against them: before the competent court after the lapse of three months from the date the decision was issued. It may decide either to reject, annul, or - 331 - Criminal Procedures and Trials amend, while prescribing safeguards. A grievance may be lodged again before it six months after determination of the grievance. - Decisions issued by the grievance court. Their nature. Non-contentious orders issued in the exercise of its non-contentious authority. They are not considered judgments issued by it in the exercise of its judicial authority. The reason therefor. They do not determine an existing dispute, as no dispute exists during investigations, nor does the court thereby exhaust its jurisdiction, since it may hear a new grievance six months after determination of the first grievance. The law also permits the investigating authority to reverse or amend it, which is inconsistent with the binding force accorded to judgments alone. The effect thereof. It may not be appealed in cassation.
