On the court record
The firm's record illustrates the interaction of third-party procedure with a derivative action, the breath-test framework for drink-driving under the Road Transport Act 1987, and the range of ancillary relief on a divorce under the Law Reform (Marriage and Divorce) Act 1976.
L.H. Singh & Co. appears in the corpus as counsel in civil-procedure, road-traffic and family litigation, argued in the High Court (Mahkamah Tinggi) and the Court of Appeal (Mahkamah Rayuan).
One matter concerned third-party and derivative procedure. Acting for an intervener in litigation involving Atlantis Engineering & Construction Sdn Bhd, the firm appeared where a strike-out application raised whether a third-party notice issued in a derivative action brought in the name of the company was plainly and obviously unsustainable, whether the grant of leave for the derivative action barred the issuance of the third-party notice, whether a claim for contribution depended on a fiduciary duty between directors, and whether issues of liability, contribution and joint-tortfeasor status should be determined at trial rather than by a mini-trial in summary proceedings, under Order 16 rule 6 and Order 18 rule 19 of the Rules of Court 2012.
On the road-traffic side the firm acted for the respondent in an appeal concerning an offence of driving a motor vehicle with an alcohol concentration above the prescribed limit under section 45A(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987, engaging the breath test under sections 45B and 45C(1) and the Motor Vehicles (Breath, Blood and Urine Test) Rules 1995.
In family law the firm acted for the petitioner in a divorce, engaging the dissolution of the marriage under section 88 of the Law Reform (Marriage and Divorce) Act 1976 and the ancillary questions that attend it, the custody, care and control of the child under section 89 and the welfare of the child, access for the party not granted custody under sections 77 and 78, the maintenance of the child under sections 92 and 93, and the division of matrimonial assets, including the marital home. The firm's record is a broad general-litigation practice engaging complex procedure, road-traffic offences and the full range of ancillary matrimonial relief.
