Summary

In the case of Mohammed Afzal Hossein v Gulf Insurance Group (Gulf) B.S.C. (C), the Qatar Financial Centre Civil and Commercial Court's Appellate Division refused an application for permission to appeal a judgment from the First Instance Circuit. The initial claim involved an accident on May 8, 2019, and was settled via a written agreement on January 24, 2024. The 2025 claim, which was dismissed as an abuse of process, reiterated the same incident and liabilities already settled in 2024. The court held that the 2025 claim was not distinct and was precluded by the 2024 settlement agreement.
