On Saturday, the New Cairo Family Court postponed the hearing for a lawsuit initiated by Nawal al-Degwy's grandson, Amr al-Degwy, who seeks to place her assets under legal guardianship. The delay grants time for the submission of documents withdrawing a motion to recuse the presiding judges. This comes after the withdrawal of the defense team's motion to recuse the court panel.

At the earlier hearing, the court had decided to adjourn proceedings to allow litigants time to submit supporting materials, reports, and legal memoranda. The case is part of growing family disputes within the Degwy family, following accusations by Nawal al-Degwy that several relatives misappropriated funds and gold jewelry worth more than a quarter of a billion Egyptian pounds.

Her grandson, the defendant, argues that her continued financial management might lead to ruin, while her defense team contends she is capable of handling her finances independently.
