Hanan Ahmed Al Ghais v AXA Insurance GIG Gulf

This dispute involved a health insurance purchaser who wanted their premium to be amended to a longer rate. The jurisdictional question was ignored. A key issue was whether there was a health insurance contract for an indefinite period between the parties or if each year on renewal a new contract was agreed. As it was a new not indefinite contract the court did not have the right to define the terms of a new contract which did not yet exist.
