SCA 210/2019
The initial dispute involved failure to pay under a sale of goods contract. A key issue was whether an appeal had been made within the deadline where there was a claim by the defendant that he had not been informed of the ruling.
Background
A company filed a case against a defendant before the court. He requested the court to order the defendant to pay 109395 Riyals. The company said that they had supplied the defendants with goods but he failed to pay their values. The company provided the court with receipts that support this claim.
The court ruled that the defendant should pay the company the amount.
The defendant appealed the ruling before the court of appeal and said that he had not been informed of the ruling.
Decision
The court said that the appeal made by the defendant was three years after the legal deadline.
The court dismissed the appeal and upheld the appealed ruling.
