English translation of the principle

Nullity of a judgment for an omission in stating the litigants' names. When it arises: when it casts doubt on the litigant's true identity. - Stating the name of a litigant who died during the hearing of the action in the judgment's preamble without stating the names of the heirs. This does not constitute a serious error resulting in the judgment's nullity.
Arabic original
بطلان الحكم للنقص في بيان أسماء الخصوم. متى يتوافر: حينما يؤدي إلى التشكيك في حقيقة الخصم. - إيراد اسم الخصم الذي توفى أثناء نظر الدعوى في ديباجة الحكم دون ذكر أسماء ورثته. لا يعد من قبيل الخطأ الجسيم الذي يؤدي لبطلان الحكم.
