How to know the judgment when the portal says "decided"?
Dear sir/madam,
There is a case against me in a commercial, full-jurisdiction court. Sorry if I'm getting this wrong. I have not participated in the case and on the advice of my UK lawyers, I have not been represented there in Dubai.
Upon checking the portal, it says a judgment was reached yesterday, but I can't see further details. So my questions are:
1) Do judgments happen behind closed doors or in front of the lawyers? (the plaintiffs have lawyers)
2) How long does it usually take for the verdict to be public and for me to see the outcome of the case?
The only thing it says online is the word "decided".

Dear sir,
Kindly be informed that usually the judgment is posted on the same day or after 24 hours, otherwise, please note that we can help you to check the outcome of the judgment and to proceed with the appeal if the judgment is against you.
