Summary
The Qatar Financial Centre Civil and Commercial Court ruled in favor of Asma Abdulaziz Al-Saud, ordering Devisers Advisory Services LLC to repay QAR 30,000 plus 5% annual interest and legal costs. The dispute arose from a failed agreement where the defendant was to assist the claimant in obtaining a UK visa, which became unavailable due to changes in UK immigration policy. The court concluded that the defendant's obligation was extinguished by legal impossibility, entitling the claimant to a refund. Both parties were self-represented.
