Judicial principle — Kuwait Court of Cassation

Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 255

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

English translation of the principle

Establishing the ship's maritime agent's agency in accordance with the general rules suffices for persons interested in the cargo to have the right to sue him as the carrier's representative and in the enforcement of judicial judgments. The failure to enter the ship's maritime agent in the register of ship agents does not alter this. Example.
Arabic original
كفاية أن تثبت وكالة الوكيل البحري للسفينة طبقاً للقواعد العامة حتى يكون لأصحاب الشأن في البضاعة الحق في اختصامه بكونه ممثلاً للناقل وفي تنفيذ الأحكام القضائية. لا يغير من ذلك عدم إدراج الوكيل البحري للسفينة بسجل قيد وكلاء السفن. مثال.
