Legal in Malaysia

My last post on this topic has received a great response from the public. Here is the link to the post. The rules of subordinate court and high courts have changed and now known as Rules of Courts 2012. Under these new rules, the small court claim is maintained under the Rule 93. I don’t see much different under the new rule. I will highlight some important points and ‘technical how’ here:- 1 st part: prepare your form and file it! The same claim limit of not more than RM5,000-00; Whoever wan to claim may do so by using form 198 (can be found inside the Rules or get it from your nearest court) or type it your own (just make sure font, layout, margin, spacing and paragraph are exactly the same); I will try to show you how to fill the formbellow. You need to state your claim amount and detail (story) of your claim in the form; After you are done, sign it or thumb print; Ok if you are done, bring it over the court, find the Registry Office and file it.

The amendments even go further on other extended jurisdiction such as injunctions, declaration etc. 

In year 2009, MP YB Karpal Singh held a press conference in responded to the Perak Political crisis and regarding the conduct of His Highness Perak Sultan Azlan Shah. 2.        YB Karpal was then charged under under section 4(1)(b) of the Sedition Act carries a maximum RM5,000 fine or three years' jail, or both if convicted at High Court. 3.        The High Court ruled against the prosecution, discharged and without calling for defense. 4.        The prosecution appealed to Court of Appeal. 5.        The Court of Appeal reversed the High court’s decision and rule that Karpal at the press conference had repeatedly uttered words that clearly meant that the Sultan of Perak had broken the law, did not follow the law and did not respect the law. 6.        The Judges further ruled “in considering whether the words of ...
