Background

A claimant filed a case against a defendant requesting that the court order it to pay 3500 Dinars in compensation for violating a contract.

The court rejected the case.

The claimant and defendant appealed and the appeal court ruled that the defendant pay the claimant 35483.334 Dinars.

The claimant appealed by cassation.

Decision

Before the cassation court the claimant argued that the ruling had insufficient evidence of causation as the court had established its ruling upon an expert report, but he objected to the conclusions of the report as the case documents included no proof that he had taken over the disputed restaurant.

The court stated that this argument was invalid as the court has the authority to consider all aspects of a case and evaluate the evidence before it to establish its ruling.

The court therefore dismissed the appeal.
