    What is the specific jurisdiction of the Cheque Tribunal?

    Ali Faizan Syed1 min read0 viewsUpdated 1/2/2026
    The Cheque Tribunal has exclusive jurisdiction over complaints related to dishonoured cheques issued by purchasers to real property developers. It also covers cheques issued by usufructuaries and long-term lease tenants whose rights fall under Law No. (7) of 2006. By concentrating these cases in one tribunal, the government provides a focused legal venue for addressing the non-payment of significant property-related debts, ensuring that both developers and long-term investors have a clear path for financial recourse.
