𝐈𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐬 | 𝗠𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲

A recent matter handled by our Dispute Resolution team was featured in the news following a decision of the Court of Appeal.

We represented the 1st and 2nd Respondents in an appeal where the Appellant sought, amongst others, a retrial of a civil suit on the basis that his previous trial counsel had been “𝙛𝙡𝙖𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙡𝙮 𝙞𝙣𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙚𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙩”.

On 13.5.2026, the Court of Appeal unanimously dismissed the appeal. The Court held, amongst others, that the high threshold required to establish “𝙛𝙡𝙖𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙞𝙣𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙚𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚” had not been met and that there was no basis to attribute blame to the trial counsel.

The Court of Appeal further ordered the Appellant to pay RM 90,000 in costs to the Respondents.

The matter was handled by Nicholas Yap together with Amanda Yap.

In this visual summary, Nicholas Yap highlights:

• how deliberate non-attendance may prevent meetings from proceeding;
• the legal consequences of the absence of quorum;
• the Court’s power to intervene under s.314 CA 2016 where it is impracticable to convene a meeting; and
• the use of written resolutions as a practical alternative for private companies.

𝐈𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐬 | 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 2026

A recent matter handled by our Dispute Resolution team was featured across several Malaysian news outlets.

We represented the Prime Minister, YAB Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim, in successfully striking out proceedings brought by P. Waytha Moorthy (“Plaintiff”) regarding the Prime Minister's appointment and his position as the Member of Parliament for Tambun.

In allowing our striking out application on 18.3.2026, the Kuala Lumpur High Court found, amongst others, that the Plaintiff’s suit was frivolous, vexatious, disclosed no reasonable cause of action, and constituted an abuse of the court process. While the High Court has delivered its decision, the matter remains subject to a potential appeal by the Plaintiff.

The matter was handled by Ranjit Singh (Ranjit Singh & Yeoh), together with our Daniel Albert, and Nicholas Yap (Daniel & Wong).
