Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 3684

The notarized acknowledgment of the appellant's indebtedness in his capacity. Its effect. A new debt arises, entirely disconnected from the old obligation and cleared of all defences as an effect of the transfer of debt. Its effect: the appellant may not dispute the amount of the new debt and its components. The reason therefor. An action exists between the debtor and the creditor entity concerning the basis and amount of the debt. The court must rule that the plaintiff is deemed to have abandoned his action and the appellant to have abandoned his appeal. The implication of abandonment in this respect.
