Judicial principle — Kuwait Court of Cassation

Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 20

State of Kuwait · Pleadings — Part Two · Ministry of Justice — Court of Cassation — Technical Office

English translation of the principle

Interest is the prerequisite for an action. Its implication. Inadmissibility of any claim or plea in which its proponent has no existing interest recognised by law. An example of absence of interest after the judgment ruled that the action concerning the underlying right could not be heard and rejected the claim for validation of the attachment.
Arabic original
المصلحة هي مناط الدعوى. مؤداه. عدم قبول أي طلب أو دفع ليس لصاحبه فيه مصلحة قائمة يقرها القانون. مثال لانتفاء المصلحة بعد قضاء الحكم بعدم سماع دعوى أصل الحق ورفض طلب صحة الحجز.
