I didn’t receive notice of the court proceedings, and the judgment was issued in my absence. Can I request to set aside the judgment or appeal, and what deadlines apply in Kuwait? I need guidance on what evidence to gather.

To provide accurate guidance on whether you can request to set aside or appeal the judgment in Kuwait, I need a few additional details about your case: Type of case: Was the judgment issued in a civil, commercial, criminal, or personal status matter? Date of the judgment: When was the judgment issued, and when did you first become aware of it? Notification: Did you receive any official notice from the court? If yes, how was it delivered (by mail, publication, or in person)? Address used for service: Was the address the court used for notification correct at the time? Proof of non-notification: Do you have any documents or evidence showing that you were not properly notified (for example, travel records or being outside Kuwait)? Execution of the judgment: Has the judgment been enforced, or is it still pending? Legal goal: Are you seeking to have the judgment set aside (for being issued in your absence), or do you intend to file an appeal? Once you provide this information, I can explain the best legal options available under Kuwaiti law and guide you on the evidence you should prepare to support your case.

If you were not properly served with a breach of contract case in Kuwait, your primary remedy is to file a "Grievance Or Appeal" to set aside the default judgment. Under Kuwaiti law, you typically have 30 days from the date you officially become aware of the ruling to appeal or challenge it. A skilled Kuwaiti lawyer from a reputable Kuwait law firm can help you gather evidence, such as proof of incorrect address or travel records, to demonstrate improper service.
