English translation of the principle

No fault attaches to the judgment for not discussing the previous litigation, which is an inconclusive presumption. Basing its ruling on the litigant's conduct not constituting an abuse of his right relates to understanding the facts and may not be raised before the Court of Cassation.
Arabic original
لا تثريب على الحكم عدم تحدثه عن الخصومة السابقة وهي قرينة غير قاطعة. إقامته قضاءه على أن مسلك الخصم لا ينطوي على إساءة لاستعماله حقه يتصل بفهم الواقع لا تجوز إثارته لدى محكمة التمييز.
