Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 4935

The procedure that initiates a judicial claim in labour actions. Its nature. Lapse of the proceedings in the action for failure to reinstate it after striking out and the passage of more than one year since the last valid litigation procedure therein. Its effect. Cancellation of all proceedings, including the statement of claim. Its implication. Extinction of the very application that initiates the judicial claim. Bringing a fresh action to claim the same entitlements without a preceding application. The challenged judgment’s ruling that it is inadmissible because it was brought otherwise than by the route prescribed by law. Correct.
