Judicial principle — Kuwait Court of Cassation

Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 4313

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

English translation of the principle

The binding force of a judgment attaches to what it has conclusively determined. What the judgment has not addressed in its ruling does not exhaust the court's jurisdiction. The effect of the plea that the action may not be heard in that regard is inadmissible. Example.
Arabic original
حجية الحكم تكون لما فصل فيه قطعياً. ما لم يتناوله الحكم في قضائه لا تستنفد به المحكمة ولايتها. أثر الدفع بعدم جواز نظر الدعوى بخصوصه غير مقبول. مثال.
