إلزام الغير بتقديم مستند تحت يده

Abstract EN

This study examines the extent to which others - those who are not parties of a case - are obliged to present documents under their control upon the request of a party of a case.

If the request is accepted, the court would ask the person having such documents to present them and he would be considered as a witness rather than a party of the case.

Therefore, when a person under such an obligation rejects to attend to the court he would be subject to the same procedures applied on witnesses, but if he rejects to presents the documents this would then be considered as rejecting to implement a judicial ruling, which is a punishable act.
