Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 1463

This is not altered by the fact that the judgment referred to was rendered by the same court, on the same day, and in a case between the same parties. - A judgment’s reliance on another judgment rendered between the same parties and at the same hearing without an order having been issued to join them. Vitiates it through infringement of the right of defense.
