Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 3199

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

English translation of the principle

The appearance of a party which extinguishes their right to invoke the invalidity of summonses and statements of claim. It is appearance pursuant to service of the document itself at the time and place specified therein for their appearance. The rationale therefor. - A party's invocation of the invalidity of the statement of claim because it was served upon them at a place other than their domicile. Their appearance at the first hearing specified in the notice cures the defect. A judgment's departure from this renders it defective and requires its cassation. - 611 - Civil Procedure
Arabic original
حضور الخصم الذي يزول به حقه في التمسك ببطلان أوراق التكليف بالحضور وصحف الدعاوى. هو الحضور الذي يتم بناء على إعلان الورقة ذاتها في الزمان والمكان المعين فيها لحضوره. علة ذلك. - تمسك الخصم ببطلان صحيفة الدعوى لإعلانه بها في غير موطنه. حضوره الجلسة الأولى المحددة في الإعلان يزيل العيب. مخالفة الحكم ذلك يعيبه ويوجب تمييزه. - ٦١١ - المرافعات
