English translation of the principle

A judicial claim that interrupts prescription. Its nature: bringing an action asserting the right, even before a court lacking jurisdiction. Merely bringing an action before the judge of urgent matters for an urgent interim measure that does not affect the substance of the right is insufficient in this respect. - 653 - Civil Procedure
Arabic original
