On the court record
Engages amendment and striking-out under the Rules of Court 2012 and the enforcement of charges over land through foreclosure and orders for sale.
Tiffany Low Jia Qi's appearances in this corpus, in the High Court and the Court of Appeal, engage civil procedure and the law of charges over land. As counsel for the plaintiff in the High Court (Mahkamah Tinggi), she acted on an application to amend a writ and statement of claim, the amendment reflecting a change in a defendant's name. The court considered whether the application had been made with inordinate delay, whether a reasonable explanation for the delay had been provided, and whether the amendment was a tactical manoeuvre, under Order 20 rule 5 and Order 1A of the Rules of Court 2012. The reasoning situated the amendment within the modern litigation framework, in which the court acts as an active manager of proceedings rather than a passive arbiter.
As counsel for a defendant she acted on applications to strike out a writ and statement of claim under limbs (a), (b) or (d) of Order 18 rule 19(1) of the Rules of Court 2012, brought by management and property parties in a dispute concerning a management corporation. Striking out under those limbs addresses pleadings that disclose no reasonable cause of action, are scandalous, frivolous or vexatious, or are otherwise an abuse of the process of the court.
In the Court of Appeal (Mahkamah Rayuan) she acted as counsel for the respondent in a foreclosure matter. Land had been charged to a bank by a third-party chargor as security for a revolving credit facility granted to a borrower; the borrower defaulted, foreclosure was taken and an order for sale was granted; and the borrower was later liquidated. The issue was whether a statutory Form 75 that did not state the borrower's indebtedness, and the existence of a surplus in the account, meant that the chargor owed no liability to the bank. Across these matters, Tiffany Low Jia Qi's practice engages amendment and striking-out under the Rules of Court 2012 and the enforcement of charges over land through foreclosure and orders for sale.
