Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 2146

A commercial instrument. It must contain specified particulars that render it self-sufficient and precisely define the obligation evidenced therein, so that it can perform the functions of payment and credit. Absence of one of these particulars. Its effect. The instrument loses its negotiable character and becomes an ordinary instrument to which the general rules governing obligations do not apply, and the debt evidenced therein is not time-barred under the provisions governing limitation of negotiable instruments, but under the general rules.
