Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 4358

The right to collect judicial fees due to the Public Treasury in respect of a statement of claim or application. The condition for its accrual: their submission to the court. The claimant’s obligation to pay the fees due on the action he brings or the application he submits once it is before the court. The Registry Department may collect the fees from the litigant whom the court ordered to pay them if the claimant did not pay them, the court proceeded to consider the action or application, and the Court Registry Department delayed collecting them until a final judgment was issued in the action. The rationale: adherence to the binding force of that judgment. - 768 - Procedure
