Employee’s Rights – Appeal – Evidence – Expert Report – Court
This case involved money owed to an employee. A key issue was whether after dismissing a case the court of appeal should hear it or sent it back to the court of first instance.
Background
An employee filed a case against a company and defendants before the court requesting the company pay 351632.720 Egyptian Pounds and validate a preventive detention. The employee claimed that the company owed him the amount.
The court dismissed the case because it was previously settled.
The employee appealed the ruling before the court of appeal. The court dismissed the appealed ruling and ruled the company should pay the employee's heirs 190812.580 Egyptian Pounds and validated the preventive detention.
