Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 2878

Form in certain contracts: its function. Failure to observe it. Its effect. The general rule is absolute nullity; the exception. What the law prescribes to address an abnormal situation or to ensure stability of transactions and protect third parties, and the principle that a person may not benefit from their own fault, and what is established without an express provision concerning the impermissibility of a partner in a company invoking, against third parties contracting with it, its invalidity for lack of form. The reason therefor. The de facto company doctrine. Its import.
