BCC 1874/2019
This case involved a failure to pay for communication services. A key issue was the court's jurisdiction as it had been mistakenly claimed the services came from an international company when they came from a local company.
Background
A company filed a case against a defendant before the court. The company requested the court to order the defendant to pay an amount of money and the interest. The company said that they had provided the defendant with communication services but he had failed to pay the bills.
The court dismissed the case.
The company appealed the ruling before the court of appeal. The court upheld the appealed ruling.
The company appealed the ruling before the court of cassation. The company said in its grounds of appeal that the ruling had erred in the application of law and had insufficient evidence of causation. The company said that the court had established the ruling on the grounds that the defendant had received the service from foreign company outside Bahrain, although the defendant had received the service through the local company.
