On the judicial record
A High Court judge whose reported corpus combines first-instance civil trials with subordinate- and industrial-court appeals, decided on the burden of proof and the limits of appellate intervention.
Justice Rozana binti Ali Yusoff sits in the High Court (Mahkamah Tinggi), and the reported decisions in this corpus are civil, combining first-instance trials with a substantial body of appellate work from the subordinate and industrial courts, in both Bahasa Malaysia and English. Appellate practice is a defining feature: many judgments apply the settled principle that an appellate court will interfere with a trial court's findings only where the judge acted on a wrong principle of law or the decision was plainly wrong, applied to road-traffic and other Sessions Court appeals, including one where the defendant did not appear to rebut the plaintiff's version of the accident.
Probate and estate disputes recur, including an application to revive a struck-out writ and to substitute a party as executor of a deceased's estate under a will, and questions of compliance with Order 72 of the Rules of Court on the issue of a citation supported by a praecipe and affidavit. Company and commercial disputes feature, including a shareholder's claim that impugned payments were unauthorised and illegal, decided on the principle that the party who asserts a fact must prove it, and a dispute over whether a share-sale agreement was validly terminated.
Employment and professional-regulation questions also come before the court, including an Industrial Court reference under section 20(3) of the Industrial Relations Act 1967 arising from a dismissal, and a challenge to the findings and recommendations of a Disciplinary Committee against an advocate and solicitor, where the court will interfere only in limited circumstances. Applications to amend pleadings under Order 20 of the Rules of Court, and questions of whether a share-sale agreement was validly terminated, round out a broad docket. The corpus reflects a High Court judge managing a busy civil and appellate list, decided by close attention to the burden of proof, the principle that the party who asserts must prove, and the limits of appellate intervention in the findings of the court below.
