On Wednesday, Kuwait’s Constitutional Court ruled that appeals related to the 2022 National Assembly elections were not admissible because they were held without legal capacity.
Kuwait News Agency cited a court statement saying that it delivered its decision on the appeals at today’s hearing on the basis that an appeal must be filed with this court by the person concerned personally or by someone expressly authorized by him to run for elections on his behalf in statutory period.
She added that this leads to the need for the power of attorney to be clear, concise and clear, stating that the power of attorney gives the right to challenge the election in this court on behalf of the client, and that the power of attorney allows for the establishment of appeals in the elections of deputies of the National Assembly for 2022 without changing that the power of attorney includes the right to represent the client before the Constitutional Court, as this does not indicate that the appellant expressly delegated him to participate in these elections on his behalf.

She pointed out that this reality goes beyond the expiration of the time limit set for electoral appeals, and then the appeal, and this is the case, is submitted without a quality that cannot be accepted.
On September 29, elections to the National Assembly of Kuwait were held in 5 districts according to a single electoral system to elect 50 deputies out of 305 male and female candidates.
