English translation of the principle

The court of merits has authority to ascertain and understand the facts of the case and to assess the evidence submitted therein, including the expert’s work, without review in that regard. It is not at fault if it does not respond separately to the challenges directed against what it adopts of the expert’s report. The rationale for that.
Arabic original
لمحكمة الموضوع السلطة في تحصيل وفهم الواقع في الدعوى وفي تقدير الأدلة المقدمة فيها بما في ذلك عمل الخبير دون معقب عليها في ذلك. لا عليها إن لم ترد استقلالاً على الطعون الموجهة إلى ما تأخذ به من تقرير الخبير. علة ذلك.
