Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 378

Leasing property held in common. A right of the majority of the co-owners. A lease of the entire property or a physically divided part thereof granted by a co-owner who does not hold a majority of the shares. Valid and effective between him and his lessee, but not against the other co-owners unless the majority approves it expressly or implicitly. This is realized by their not objecting to what their co-owner has done. He is considered their representative in this case. - A private contract. Binding evidence against its parties as to the particulars recorded therein. The condition thereof: that it bears a signature that is not denied. The reason thereof. - Establishment that the lease contract was concluded between the appellant in cassation as lessee and the respondent as lessor. Inclusion in the contract of authorization for the latter to undertake litigation procedures concerning disputes arising therefrom. The challenged judgment's conclusion rejecting the plea that the action was inadmissible because it was brought by a person without full standing is correct.
