Judicial principle — Kuwait Court of Cassation

Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 3771

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

English translation of the principle

The judgment must resolve every dispute arising over any element of the action upon which its determination depends. Its failure to scrutinize a comprehensive accounting between the parties, as required to resolve the entire dispute, and its stopping at the statement that the amount paid exceeds the value of the instruments on some of which the action was based, and its allocation of payment to the debt, thereby preventing it from scrutinizing the facts of the action and addressing the motive therein. Invalidating insufficiency of reasoning.
Arabic original
وجوب تصفية الحكم لكل نزاع يقوم على أي من عناصر الدعوى ويتوقف عليه الفصل فيها. إعراضه عن تمحيص محاسبة شاملة بين الطرفين مما يلزم لتصفية النزاع برمته ووقوفه عند القول بأن ما سدد يزيد عن قيمة السندات التي أسست الدعوى على بعضها وصرفه الوفاء إلى الدين مما حجبه عن تمحيص واقع الدعوى ومواجهة الدافع فيها. قصور مبطل.
