Greetings of the day.

In the UAE, when a case is appealed to the Court of Cassation, the timeline for responding depends on when the court officially notifies you of the appeal.

After being notified, the respondent typically has 15 days to submit a written response or defense memorandum.

This is governed by the procedural laws, and the court may allow extensions in exceptional circumstances.

Dear Client,

Thanks for your question! I hope you are doing well. I will assist you in this matter.

In your case, once an appeal has been filed with the Court of Cassation, you have 15 days to respond and prepare your defense after being served with the summons.

The hearing date is not announced until after your statement of defense is submitted. It’s crucial to ensure that your response is prepared within this timeframe to avoid any negative implications for your case.

If you have not yet received official notification of the appeal, you should monitor the situation closely and consult with us to ensure compliance with procedural requirements.

Thanks & Regards,

ABDUL WAHIED
