Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 3420

A petition for reconsideration based on documents whose forgery was acknowledged or judicially established after its issuance. Condition for its admissibility. Forgery of the document forming the basis of the judgment must be established by the opposing party's admission or by a judgment declaring it forged, after that judgment and before the petition is filed. Reason for this. The petition is a means of correcting a judgment based on the forged document, not a means of establishing its forgery. Consequence. Forgery may not be alleged in the reconsideration action.
