About Wong Wan Ting

Wong Wan Ting appears as counsel of record in 4 reported Malaysia judgments (2025). These were heard before MYHC (3) and MYCOA (1).

On the court record

The reported matters span insolvency, land-acquisition and finality-of-litigation work, grounded in High Court and Court of Appeal judgments.

Wong Wan Ting's reported matters cover insolvency, land acquisition and land, and the finality of litigation, argued in the High Court and the Court of Appeal. A winding-up decision arose from a petition founded on an unsatisfied judgment debt, where applications were made to stay the winding-up proceedings pending an appeal, engaging sections 465(1)(e), 466(1), 470 and 493 of the Companies Act 2016; appearing for the petitioner, the Court directed that the costs of the petition be taxed and paid out of the company's assets as costs in the winding up.

Land acquisition features in a High Court matter concerning the time of a compulsory acquisition, and in particular whether the date of acquisition falls when the land is gazetted under section 4 or under section 8 of the Land Acquisition Act 1960; appearing for the appellant, the matter turned on the correct statutory reference point for the acquisition.

Land and the finality of litigation complete the profile. In a matter where the plaintiffs filed a fresh originating summons concerning ownership and an injunction over the same property that had been decided in earlier proceedings, the Court applied the principle of res judicata and the requirement that litigation must come to an end, and, exercising its power under Order 18 rule 19(1) of the Rules of Court 2012, allowed the defendant's striking-out application. She also appeared for a respondent in a related Court of Appeal appeal concerning a joint-venture agreement and a wrongful caveat under section 329(1) of the National Land Code, where the Court upheld the High Court's decision. A thread across these decisions is the enforcement of monetary and property rights and the insistence on finality, from a winding-up petition and a compulsory-acquisition date to the barring of a re-litigated claim, argued in the High Court and before the Court of Appeal of Malaysia.
