Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 3701

Appeal in cassation against judgments rendered by the Court of Appeal. Permissible regardless of the subject matter in which the challenged judgment was rendered, whenever it is based on a violation of the law or an error in its application or interpretation, or where a nullity has occurred in the judgment or the proceedings affecting the judgment. Exception: The parties may appeal by the same route against any final judgment, regardless of the court that rendered it, if it determined a dispute contrary to another judgment previously rendered between the same parties and having acquired the force of res judicata. An appeal directed against the challenged judgment rendered by the Court of Appeal, and not against the decision of the Arbitration Committee of the Kuwait Stock Exchange. Permissible. The plea that it may not be heard. Incorrect.
