A claimant filed a case against a defendant before the court. He requested the court to order the defendant to pay him expenses he had paid to an expert he had appointed in a previous case plus compensation for damage. He said that the defendant had failed to commit to his obligations in this regard.

The court said that the case documents revealed that the claimant had appointed the expert and therefore the defendant should not pay his expenses. The court said that the court had already ordered the defendant to pay compensation to the claimant.

The court dismissed the case and said that it had been already considered.

The Court of Appeal – Jeddah upheld the ruling based on same grounds.
