Work highlights
- Represented United Overseas Bank (Malaysia) and succeeded in obtaining confirmation from the Federal Court that the bank's consolidation of accounts was simply an accounting exercise and, in the context of bankruptcy proceedings, does not create a security over the debt owed by the judgment debtor in his capacity as a guarantor to other credit facilities.
- Acted for Health Digital Technologies and obtained a High Court order to quash a decision by the Pharmacy Enforcement Division of the Ministry of Health against the client.
- Successfully represented a doctor and TV personality in the Court of Appeal, where the Court of Appeal overturned a High Court order arising from contempt proceedings and upheld the ordinary rights of the public to criticise the judiciary in good faith.
