English translation of the principle

Assigning a chamber of the Court of Appeal to hear appeals in rental cases does not prevent it from hearing other matters. Reason. Exceeding the allocation of work among the court’s chambers does not entail - 143 - Civil Procedure a violation of the rules of jurisdiction. Example of a manifestly invalid defence in this regard for which the judgment is not faulted if it does not answer it.
Arabic original
تخصيص دائرة بمحكمة الاستئناف للنظر في استئناف دعاوى الإيجارات لا يمنع من نظرها أموراً أخرى. علة ذلك. تنظيم العمل بين دوائر المحكمة لا يترتب على تجاوزه - ١٤٣ - المرافعات مخالفة لقواعد الاختصاص. مثال لدفاع ظاهر البطلان في هذا الشأن لا على الحكم إن لم يرد عليه.
