١ 1. — Arrêt de la poursuite — Poursuite du complice. — Lorsqu'une poursuite en adultère de la femme est arrêtée parce que le mari a consenti à reprendre sa femme, la poursuite doit être également abandonnée vis-à-vis du complice. (Trib. app. Tantah, 21 février 1908, N° 77).

٢ 2. — Poursuites après le divorce. — Le divorce « baïn » par une fois a pour effet de rescinder le contrat de mariage, et de placer les parties dans la même situation relative que si le mariage n'avait pas eu lieu. Le mari ne peut, en conséquence, dénoncer l'adultère de sa femme s'il l'a répudiée dans cette forme. (Trib. app. Kéna, 4 juillet 1907, N° 50).

١ —Prosecution after divorce.—The effect of a single "baïn" divorce is to rescind the marriage contract and to place the parties in the same relative position as if no marriage had taken place. The husband cannot consequently bring a charge of adultery against his wife after he has divorced her in this manner. (Trib. App. Kena, 4 July 1907; No. 50).

٢ — Withdrawal of prosecution—Prosecution of paramour.—When a prosecution of a wife for adultery is withdrawn because the husband has consented to take her back, the prosecution of the paramour must also be withdrawn. (Trib. App. Tanta, 24 Feb. 1908; No. 77).

— Power to waive evidence for the defence; v. Procedure Criminal, 123.

— Act accompanied by aggravating circumstance. — Offence attempted; v. Attempt, 24.

— Sale, Licensee; v. Establishments, Public, 47.

٣ —Amount of claim—Ejectment action—Rent.— A claim for ejectment by the lessor made after the expiration of the lease is indeterminate and appealable. A claim for rent until ejectment is also indeterminate and appealable. (Trib. App. Alex., 19 Sept. 1907; No. 21).

٤ —Amount of claim — How determined — Appeal from costs.—Where an appeal is brought on the question of costs only, its admissibility, as regards the amount of the claim, is to be determined exclusively by reference to the amount of such costs. (Trib. App. Cairo, 28 Oct. 1907; No. 35).

٥ —Amount of claim—Increase in notice of appeal.—A cause cannot be rendered appealable by increasing the amount of the claim in the notice of appeal. (Trib. App. Cairo, 25 Feb. 1908; No. 64).

٦ —Compromise recorded by Court.—No appeal lies from a compromise of an action entered on the record of the Court before which such action was pending. It can be impugned only on one of the grounds enumerated in C.C. art. 535, and before the same Court. (Trib. App. Alex., 18 July 1907: No. 31).

٧ —Decision setting aside proceedings — Art. 124 C.C.C.Pr.—A decision setting aside proceedings under art. 124 C.C.C.Pr. cannot be impugned in any manner. (App. 14 April 1907; No. 89).

٨ —Execution difficulties—Order. — No appeal lies from the decision of a Court on difficulties with reference to the execution of a judgment pronounced by itself which have been referred to it under art. 386, C.C.C.Pr. (App. 15 June 1907; No. 74).

٩ —Expert, Appointment of.—An order appointing an expert to examine documents, and which affords no indication of the ultimate decision on the merits, is a purely preparatory order, and an immediate appeal does not lie therefrom. (App. 6 Jan. 1908; No. 86).

١٠ — Forfeiture of right — Bailiff's negligence — Remedy. — Failure to bring an appeal within the time limited by art. 353 C.C.C.Pr. entails forfeiture of the right although the appellant has not been in default. Thus when a bailiff who has been duly requested, within the time limited, to serve a notice of appeal fails to do so until after the time has expired, the appeal cannot be entertained and the only remedy open to the appellant is an action in damages against the bailiff. (App. 4 March 1908; No. 124).

١١ —Interrogatories, Order for.—An order for the administration of interrogatories to one of the parties in an action is a preparatory and not an interlocutory order. It cannot therefore be appealed from except in conjunction with an appeal against the principal judgment. (App. 14 April 1907; No. 72).

—Joinder of civil claimant on appeal; v. Civil Claim, 37.

١٢ —Amount of claim—Appeal by accused.—A person convicted of misdemeanour may appeal on the question of damages although the amount of damages claimed does not exceed the highest claim triable by the Summary Judge in a civil action without appeal. (Trib. App. Zagazig, 8 Dec. 1907; No. 52, also Cass. 15 Feb. 1908; No. 106).

١٣ —Appeal by accused only—Erroneous charge.—When, in a case of misdemeanour, appeal is lodged by the accused only, the appellate Court, although it is of opinion that the act charged constitutes a crime, cannot, on pain of nullity, send the accused before the parquet in pursuance of art. 189 C.Cr.Pr. (Cass. 25 Jan. 1908; No. 84).

١٤ —Appeal by accused only—Committal to reformatory—Nature of sentence.—The object of sending a juvenile offender to a reformatory is to ameliorate and educate, but not to punish him. When, therefore, such an offender is sentenced, in first instance, to imprisonment and, on appeal, the Court substitutes for imprisonment, committal for a longer period to a reformatory school, it cannot be maintained that the penalty has been increased, and the judgment will be upheld notwithstanding the fact that the State Representative had not appealed. (Cass. 25 Jan. 1908; No. 85).

١٥ — Contravention—Acquittal—Appeal by Parquet.—Where, in a contravention case, the State Representative has applied unsuccessfully for a sentence other than fine, damages, restitution or costs the judgment is subject to appeal on his part, under art. 153 of the C.Cr.Pr., although the accused be acquitted. (Trib. App. Kena, 26 Sep. 1907; N° 33).

١٦ —Contravention — Acquittal — Encroachment on highway. Art. 328 P.C.—Removal of obstruction.—In a prosecution for encroachment on a highway under art. 328, § 1 P.C., the fact that the State Representative has asked that the removal of an obstruction from the highway may be ordered does not render a judgment of acquittal appealable on the part of the State Representative. (Trib. App. Beni-Souef, 12 March 1908; No. 115).

١٧ —Misdemeanor—Appeal from Markaz Tribunal—Limit of sentence.—No heavier sentence can be imposed by a Central Tribunal sitting on appeal from a Markaz Tribunal than could have been imposed by such Markaz Tribunal. (Cass. 29 June 1907; N° 7).

١٨ — Misdemeanor Court — Sentence for contravention.—The provision of art. 153, C.Cr.Pr., applies to judgments pronounced by contraventional tribunals only. Hence, when an act originally classed as a misdemeanor is found by the correctional tribunal to amount to a contravention only, and sentence of fine not exceeding L.E. 1 is accordingly passed on the accused, the judgment is subject to appeal on the part of the accused under art. 175, C.Cr.Pr. (Trib. App. Tanta, 6 April 1908; N° 78).

٣ 3. — Annulation de la procédure — Art. 124 C.P.C.C. — Un jugement prononçant l'annulation de la procédure en vertu de l'art. 124 C.P.C.C. n'est susceptible d'aucun recours. (App., 14 avril 1907, N° 89).

٤ 4. — Déchéance du droit — Négligence d'huissier — Recours. — L'omission d'interjeter appel dans le délai imparti par l'art. 353 C.P.C.C. entraîne déchéance du droit d'appel bien que l'appelant ne soit pas en faute. Dès lors, lorsqu'un huissier qui avait été régulièrement requis dans le délai prescrit de signifier un acte d'appel, omet de le faire jusqu'après l'expiration du délai, l'appel doit être déclaré irrecevable et l'appelant n'a d'autre droit que celui d'intenter une action en dommages-intérêts contre l'huissier. (App. 4 mars 1908, N° 124).

٥ 5. — Exécution — Difficultés — Jugement. — Il n'y a pas d'appel contre le jugement statuant sur des difficultés d'exécution lorsque la contestation est portée, par application de l'art. 386 C.P.C.C., devant le tribunal qui a rendu le jugement. (App. 15 juin 1907, No. 74).

٦ 6. — Expert — Nomination. — Un jugement qui nomme un expert pour examiner des actes, et ne laisse pas deviner l'issue probable du procès, est un jugement purement préparatoire. (App. 6 janvier 1907, No. 86).

٧ 7. — Interrogatoire sur faits et articles — Jugement ordonnant. — Un jugement ordonnant un interrogatoire sur faits et articles est un jugement préparatoire et non interlocutoire. Il ne peut par conséquent, être frappé d'appel que simultanément avec l'appel contre le jugement principal. (App. 14 avril 1907, No. 72).

٨ 8. — Taux de la demande — Action en évacuation des lieux loués — Loyers. — Une demande en évacuation des lieux loués introduite après l'expiration du bail est indéterminée et appelable. Une demande en payement de loyers jusqu'à l'évacuation est de même indéterminée et appelable. (Trib. app. Alexandrie, 19 septembre 1907, No. 21).

٩ 9. — Taux de la demande — Fixation — Appel portant sur les frais. — En cas d'appel portant exclusivement sur les frais, la recevabilité de cet appel, en ce qui concerne le taux de la demande, est déterminée exclusivement par le montant des frais. (Trib. app. du Caire, 28 octobre 1907, N° 35). [مدخلة تمتدّ من ص٣ إلى ص٤]

١٠ 10. — Taux de la demande — Majoration dans l'acte d'appel. — Une affaire ne peut pas être rendue susceptible d'appel par l'augmentation de la somme réclamée dans l'acte d'appel. (Trib. app. du Caire, 25 février 1908, N° 64).
