A claimant filed a case against a company before the court. He requested the court to order the company to pay him severance pay of 906356 Riyals.

The company claimed that the claimant did not deserve the severance pay. It said that he had previously filed a case in the same regard but the court dismissed it at the time.

The court considered the documents of the case and found that the claimant was not an employee but a partner in the company. The claimant therefore did not deserve to be paid severance pay.

The court dismissed the case.

The claimant appealed the ruling before the court of appeal.

The court dismissed the appeal and upheld the appealed ruling.
