How many times can the company appeal a labor court judgment?

I am an employee of a mainland company in Dubai. I won a partial labor case of AED 145,000 then the company submitted an appeal and got rejected by the court.

I got the final judgment and filed labor execution. The court sent a notice of 15 days which has passed and my company filed a petition to review the labor for my main case, and in the last hearing, the court asked me to reply which I will submit.

My question is: how many times can the company appeal like this? And what are the chances this petition court will reject as well and follow the last 2 judgments issued by the court?

They can file a petition to the court and then in Maher, it is preferable for you to appoint a lawyer to execute and collect the amount.

After the ruling, an implementation file is opened to collect the amount. There are many actions that can be taken against the company to enforce the judgment.

Among that are the seizure of bank accounts and company cars, banning the manager from traveling, and other procedures.

A non-final ruling may be appealed only once in the deadlines.
