SCA 4471239588/2024

The initial dispute involved a financial claim related to the supply of labour. Issues included the non-appearance of one party in court and the failure of the other to file an appeal via a legal representative.

Background

The dispute arose between a claimant and a chemical company regarding a financial claim connected with the supply of labour. The claimant requested that the defendant be ordered to pay a sum of 153,180 riyals as the principal claim, together with 15,318 riyals as litigation expenses, bringing the total to 168,498 Saudi riyals. The claimant argued that the defendant had benefited from the services provided without settling the amounts due. The case was initially filed before the Seventeenth Commercial Circuit of the Commercial Court in Jeddah, which, after reviewing the pleadings and case records, dismissed the claim in its entirety.
