Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 759

The injured person may not combine two compensations for the same damage. Persons to whom the Law on Military Retirement Pensions and Gratuities applies may not claim compensation based on its rules and compensation under the general rules of liability. When assessing compensation, the judge must deduct the gratuity, pension, or compensation determined to be paid from the total compensation due for all damage. The purpose of compensation is to redress the damage commensurately and without exceeding it.
