Form of objection to judgment

According to Article No. (205) of  the Saudi Code of Criminal Procedure  , a request for reconsideration can be submitted in a newspaper filed with the court that issued the judgment, and then the newspaper must include a statement of the judgment requested to be reviewed, as well as the judgment number and date, and mention the reasons for the objection.

If the judgment was issued by  the Court of Appeal  or  the Supreme Court , then the court that issued the judgment submits a statement of reconsideration of the judgment to the court that upheld the judgment, and in these cases the court shall prepare a decision accepting or rejecting the request.

Many of the judicial rulings that are issued may be based on proving the defendant’s guilt, on evidence that the ruling clearly contradicts the evidence of non-conviction.

It may be that the accused was harmed by a decision issued and caused harm to him without being represented in the case, but the judgment is material or moral harm, so that person has the right to object to it.

When the judge issues the judgment, the convict has the right to file an objection to the judgment in the case record, on behalf of a lawyer who is capable of writing objections to judicial judgments.

Submit the objection list within a period of (30) days from the date of receiving a copy of the instrument

The objector can submit a number of objection regulations during the objection period

If the convict decides to accept the judgment issued by the court, he has the right, before taking his signature in the record of the case, to withdraw from the acceptance of the judgment and to request that his objection be registered.

If the judge sets a specific time for the convict to attend and receive a copy of the deed, and the convict does not attend, the objection period starts from this date.

The responsible party must bring the convict to receive a copy of the deed, as well as bring it to submit an objection list

If the convict objects and refuses to sign the seizure, the judge records this in the seizure, and if the objector appears during the objection period and signs, a copy of the deed is given.

The objection list, when submitted to the court, must be signed by the objector

Finally, the list is submitted to the court administration

There is a so-called objection list about the judicial ruling according to the text of the Saudi law on the judgment of drug possession, where this list is presented not to cover up or deny the charge of the convicted person, but there may be reasons for acquittal or even to reduce the sentence .

Possession of narcotics, as its meaning came in  the anti-narcotics system in the Saudi regime, means: “Seizing narcotics or psychotropic substances by way of possession or jurisdiction .” 

The penalty for drug possession varies according to the intent of possession. Possession of drugs may be for the purpose of promotion or trade, or it may be unintentionally not trade, promotion, abuse, or even any personal use.

Example: You may find in someone’s possession a large amount of drugs and they admitted to possessing it for the purpose of personal use, and the intent was not to promote and there was no intent to promote it. But the possessor of drugs divides them into small bags. Is this the intent and the promotion of drugs? .

Here, the eminent judge will sentence the accused to the penalty of possession of drugs with the intent of promoting, so distributing them in small bags is evidence indicating that the intent is to promote, and some judges may see proof of possession without proving its intent, and conviction may be proven with possession with the intention of personal use, because if the evidence touched on the possibility fell inference .

According to Article 3 of the Law of Criminal Procedure, which states that no penal penalty may be imposed without proof of guilt .

The penalty for possessing drugs with the intention of promoting as stated in Article No. (37) is for a period of no less than five years and not more than ten years, and flogging for no more than fifty lashes each time, in addition to a fine of between one thousand and fifty thousand Saudi riyals .

The penalty for possessing narcotics for personal use is in accordance with Article No. (41) of the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances, provided that he shall be punished with imprisonment for a period of no less than six months and not exceeding two years .

In this case, the convict comes to submit an objection to the judge’s judgment, with the help of a lawyer specialized in criminal matters and laws, Al-Safwa Office in Jeddah, the best team of lawyers specialized in all legal cases in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

An objectionable list in which the annulment of the judgment of the accused and the innocence or the reduction of the penalty for the accused is presented, where the facts of the case are concluded according to what is evident from the vocabulary of its papers.

One of the most important reasons that prompt the client to ask the lawyer to write an objection statement is that the accused may be compelled to do so, or he may have done this work for material or moral reasons.

The lawyer reads the judgment carefully. There are reasons for the objectionable regulation book set by Saudi law, which are

The first precedent must be drug of abuse or possession, and the convict must not have any provisions for smuggling, abuse, or even promotion of these substances previously.

That the convict is not wanted in other cases

That the case (drug use or possession) is not associated with another crime of the moral type

And that there is no connection between the accused and drug possession or abuse

Appeal means the decision issued by the Court of First Instance and is subject to appeal .

The appeal publishes the case again, and the appellant has the right to present whatever defenses he wants in support of his right within the appealed decision .

Appeal Request: It is a request in which judgments issued by the courts of the first instance are reviewed by the courts of the second instance, for the purpose of verifying their validity by scrutinizing them or hearing the statements of the litigants again .

Hence, if one of the litigating parties decides to appeal a court decision, the appeal petition must be submitted to the same court that issued the final ruling, within thirty days from the date of the final decision .

Here the verdict is directed to the Court of Appeal .

At the request of the master…..who resides in …….and at the request of the lawyer, Mr.…… located in …….

The appellant filed Case No…. For the year……..a student, at the conclusion of the newspaper it opened, was sentenced to …………

On…../…../….. the Court of First Instance ruled the final judgment .

Whereas, this ruling was in violation of the law for the following reasons :

Article /240/ of the Shari’a pleadings system stipulates the executive regulations governing the appeal procedures. She stressed the importance of adhering to the deadlines and deadlines for submitting the appeal

Therefore, the judgment must be decided within less than 20 days from the submission of the appeal. Or the objectionable list, except for urgent cases, which are considered within a period of 10 days from the date of submitting the list

And here it becomes clear to us that the transaction or case must take place on appeal. Usually a period of 20 days from the date of making the objection note in ordinary cases. And usually within a period of 10 days from the date of submitting the appeal memorandum in urgent cases. We have written for the benefit a detailed topic about how long the case sits in the Court of Appeal in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

The text of the Law of Criminal Procedure and Legal Pleadings has the right to object to judicial rulings issued

Article (193, 201, 202) of the Law of Criminal Procedure stipulates determining the cases in which an objection can be submitted and the judgment is reversed.

Article No. (174) of the Patriarch’s Pleadings Law stipulates that: [It is not permissible to present an objection to the judicial rulings of those who have been adjudicated with all of his requests, unless the system stipulates otherwise.

It is permissible to object to:

Every verdict issued in the crime of conviction

Every ruling issued against the book

Every ruling issued in violation of the Sunnah

Every judgment issued in contravention of the regulations relating to the jurisdiction of the Court

The judgment or the legal decision is carefully read, checked and compared with the requests of the objection list with the judgment, and does the judgment include all the requests of the objector or not?

Did the ruling include [the criminal description in all its bluntness, which has been proven to the merit of the case examiner]

When writing the objection list, the court’s final decision number, date, name of the accused and the accusation must be mentioned, in addition to what are the reasons for objecting to the judgment

In the event that the convict is absent from the Governing Council, the court sets a date for depositing the ruling in the case file, and through this date the objection period begins in accordance with the text of Article No. (57). The circuit sets a date for receiving a copy of the judgment, in accordance with Article No. (166). If the objection period has expired and the convicted person has not submitted the objection, he acquires the final judgment.

The convict can waive the objection during the statutory objection period, thus it is possible to file a memorandum of waiver of the objection, and this is based on what was stated in Article No. (165), which states “The person with the right to object shall submit a memorandum containing his waiver of the appeal request with the court administration.

It is not permissible to object to the judgment of the person against whom all his requests have been judged, based on Article No. (177) which states: “It is not permissible to object to the judgment except the convicted person, or the person for whom all of his requests have not been judged, unless the system stipulates otherwise.

Based on Article No. (70): If the judgment is based on conciliation or agreement between the litigants, they have no right to object or appeal against the judgment
