​​​The Board of Grievances clarified that the inadmissibility of an enforcement request due to the expiry of statutory time limits does not result in the forfeiture of rights or the extinguishment of obligations. It further affirmed that such inadmissibility does not affect the underlying right or its establishment, nor does it prevent holding the responsible party ​accountable.​​

Today, the Board published a detailed interpretation of Article (9) under Chapter One of Part Two of the Enforcement Law Before the Board of Grievances. The article stipulates that the inadmissibility of an enforcement request due to the expiry of the periods specified in Article (8) of the Law does not lead to the extinguishment of the obligation, nor does it preclude the application of the provisions set forth in Part Four of the Law.

The published interpretation further explained that a ruling declaring an enforcement request inadmissible due to the expiry of the period prescribed under Article (8) of the Enforcement Law Before the Board of Grievances does not result in the forfeiture or extinguishment of the obligation. Article (8) of the same Law provides that the claimant must demand the right within a period not exceeding ten years from the date the right arose, and file the enforcement claim within thirty days from the date of the demand, or within five days where the enforcement sought concerns an urgent judgment.

Referring further to the Board’s interpretation of Article (9), the ruling of inadmissibility due to the expiry of the statutory period does not affect the underlying right or prejudice its establishment. Moreover, the inadmissibility of the enforcement request does not prevent the application of the provisions contained in Part Four of the Enforcement Law Before the Board of Grievances, including sanctions against any public official who commits or participates in abuse of authority or intentionally refrains from enforcing enforceable instruments with the intent of obstructing enforcement.

It is noteworthy that the Enforcement Law Before the Board of Grievances classifies such acts as major corruption offenses warranting detention.​​
