English translation of the principle

The challenged judgment's conclusion that the cause of the compensation action is the depositary's breach of the obligation to return the deposit upon formal demand. Its subsequent refusal to examine the three-year limitation period based on liability for an unlawful act invoked by the appellant. Does not vitiate it. Reason therefor.
Arabic original
انتهاء الحكم المطعون فيه إلى أن دعوى التعويض سببها إخلال المودع لديه برد الوديعة عند طلبها منه رسمياً. إعراضه من بعد عن بحث التقادم الثلاثي على أساس المسئولية عن العمل غير المشروع الذي تمسك به الطاعن. لا يعيبه. علة ذلك.
