Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 4484

State of Kuwait · Civil Matters — Volume 11 · Ministry of Justice — Court of Cassation — Technical Office

English translation of the principle

The obligation of the authority entrusted with registering ownership and of the administrative committees determining ownership claims to comply with the provisions of the Real Estate Registration and Ownership Claims Laws does not prevent the courts, when hearing actions to establish ownership, from accepting any evidence they find convincing, provided it is among the legally recognized means of proof. The reason for this.
Arabic original
التزام الجهة المنوط بها تسجيل الملكية واللجان الإدارية التي تفصل في إدعاءات الملكية بما ورد بقانوني التسجيل العقاري وإدعاءات الملكية لا يمنع المحاكم عند نظر دعاوى إثبات الملكية من الأخذ بأي دليل تقتنع به ما دام من طرق الإثبات القانونية. علة ذلك.
