Subject
The amendment to the Civil Procedure Law became effective immediately upon issuance except for situations covered by its Article Two. Consequently, appellate-court decisions dated 2024/4/16 and later, where the claim value does not exceed 20,000 dinars, require permission to file a cassation appeal; the decisive reference is the judgment date.
Summary
In the cited instance, a decision issued by the court of first instance acting as an appellate court on 2024/10/17 — after the amendment took effect — involved claimed labor rights totaling 10,037 dinars in the final pleading. Therefore, a cassation appeal is not admissible without permission from the court president. The cited appeal identifier in the available points is: تمييز حقوق هيئة عامة رقم ٧٢/ ٢٠٢٥.
Practical significance
Practitioners and litigants must confirm the judgment date and the aggregate claimed amount before lodging a cassation appeal, since post-amendment judgments with claim values at or below 20,000 dinars require prior permission from the court president.
