Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 3581

Suretyship. Its nature. Independence of the suretyship contract from the original debt contract in its parties and subject matter. The effect thereof. The arbitration clause contained in the latter contract does not apply to the suretyship contract unless the surety accepts or ratifies it. The courts have jurisdiction to hear the dispute concerning both contracts because they are indivisibly connected, to prevent conflicting judgments. - 612 - Civil Procedure
