This case involved non-payment for goods. One party provided evidence but the other failed to attend the hearing so the court ruled in the claimant's favour.

Background

A company filed a case against a company before the court. The company requested the court to order the other company to pay 18000 Riyals. The company said that they had supplied the other company with car tyres but the other company had failed to pay their value.

Decision

The court said that the case documents revealed that the company had provided the court with the documents that proved their claims. The court said that the case documents also revealed that the other company had failed to attend the hearing.

The court ruled that the other company should pay the mentioned amount.
