Appeals Court Allows Signature Forgery Challenges
The judicial ruling concluded that challenging a signature for forgery in signature validity lawsuits now includes the possibility of contesting the core of the contract itself. This differs from previous principles, which were limited to challenging only the signature. It was acknowledged that forgery can be contested on all parts of the documents, including the substance of the contract, during the examination of the signature validity case. This is based on Article 29 of the Evidence Law, which clarifies that forgery can apply to all official and unofficial documents, and Article 49, which allows submitting a report indicating the forged sections within the lawsuit. The court also affirmed that the authority to understand and evaluate evidence, and thus draw conclusions, rests with the court, thereby supporting the possibility of challenging the substance of the contract in forgery cases—aligning with the Court of Appeal's decision in case No. 592 of 2024, Civil, Appeal West Tanta.
