What is the criterion for determining the subject-matter jurisdiction of the Commercial Courts in disputes arising from partnerships where both parties contribute capital and labor?

⚡ Quick Answer:

If the partnership is based on both parties contributing capital and labor together, and is classified as a *Sharikat Al-Inan* (equity partnership) and not a formal company (*Sharikat Nidhamiya*) or a *Mudaraba* partnership, then jurisdiction over its disputes falls to the General Courts, not the Commercial Courts.
