P/S : Hi, I am sharing my personal notes of law-related subjects. Some parts of them are explained in a very informal-relaxed way and mix of languages (BM and English). Secondly, as law revolves every day, there will be outdated parts in my notes. Two ways of handling it.. (1) double check with the latest law and keep it to yourself (2) same with No. 1 coupled with your generosity to share with us, the LinkedIn users (hiks ^_^). Till then, have a nice day!
The document discusses liens and lien holder's caveats under Malaysian land law. It provides definitions and discusses key cases that have helped define:
- What constitutes a valid lien under section 281 of the National Land Code, including whether the loan can be to a third party rather than just the registered proprietor.
- The effect of a lien holder's caveat, including that it has a similar prohibitive effect as a private caveat in preventing subsequent dealings on the land.
- Issues around who can create and enter a lien holder's caveat, as well as the requirements and procedures around creating and removing caveats. Cases have found equitable rights can still exist even if statutory requirements are not fully met.
This document provides an introduction and comparison of limited liability partnerships (LLPs) and basic partnerships. Some key points:
1. LLPs were introduced to provide more flexibility for business organizations while maintaining limited liability for partners. They combine features of partnerships and companies.
2. Unlike partnerships, LLPs have separate legal personality and partners have limited liability. However, partners are still liable for their own wrongful acts.
3. LLP registration requirements are simpler than for companies but more formal than basic partnerships. LLPs must also appoint a compliance officer.
4. LLPs can continue operating with one partner for a defined period, whereas partnerships require a minimum of two partners. LLP
A lien is a right to retain possession of property belonging to another person as security for payment of a debt. A lien is created in two stages: first, the proprietor or lessee deposits the land title or duplicate lease with a lender as security for a loan, creating an equitable lien. Second, the lender enters a lien-holder's caveat on the land title at the land office, creating a statutory lien. Key requirements for a valid lien are that the registered proprietor deposits the title with intent to secure a loan. While express consent is not needed to lodge a caveat, fraud in the creation of security can be an issue. A lien provides a speedy way for businessmen to raise money compared
Partnership and company have key differences. A partnership is the relation between persons carrying on business together with a view of profit, governed by the Partnership Act 1961. A company is a separate legal entity registered under the Companies Act 1965. While a partnership consists of at least two partners with unlimited liability, a company has a legal personality separate from its members and shareholders have limited liability once shares are fully paid.

The document discusses the legal status of pre-incorporation contracts under English common law and Malaysian company law. It provides an introduction and overview of key cases.
In English common law, pre-incorporation contracts are invalid and cannot be ratified by the company after incorporation. As such, outsiders who contract with promoters cannot enforce the contract or hold the company liable. Promoters are also not personally liable as a non-existent company cannot appoint agents. However, under Malaysian company law pre-incorporation contracts can be ratified, protecting outsiders and allowing them recourse against the company or promoters. The document analyzes several important cases to illustrate how these laws are applied.
This document provides an overview of the constitution of a company under Malaysian law, focusing on the Memorandum of Association. It discusses the required contents of the Memorandum, including the name, objectives, capital structure, and liability clauses. It also examines how the Memorandum and Articles of Association can be altered, with the Memorandum generally being more difficult to amend due to its importance in defining the company's external relations. The document analyzes restrictions on altering the Memorandum and Articles, and the relationship between the two documents that together form the company's constitution.
The document discusses the nature of liens under Malaysian law. It defines a lien as a right to retain possession of property belonging to another person until a debt owed is satisfied.

For a statutory lien to be valid, the lender must lodge a lien-holder's caveat on the land with the land office. The document analyzes several court cases that discuss issues such as how liens are created, whether consent is needed to lodge a caveat, and priority of liens over other interests like charges or judgments.

The document discusses the application of English commercial law in Malaysia under Section 5 of the Civil Law Act 1956. It provides:
1) Section 5 allows for the reception of English commercial law in Malaysia, with the cut-off date depending on the state - either the date of enactment for some states or continuous reception for others.
2) The term "mercantile law generally" has been broadly interpreted by courts to include any English law connected to commercial transactions.
3) However, Section 5 does not allow for the reception of English land law in Malaysia.
The appellant, a defense lawyer for Dato' Seri Anwar Ibrahim, filed a motion to disqualify two prosecutors based on supporting documents. The High Court judge held the motion was baseless and proposed holding the appellant in contempt of court. In a summary hearing, the appellant was found guilty and sentenced to 3 months imprisonment. The Federal Court allowed the appeal, finding that: (1) the appellant was justified in filing the motion, so there was no abuse of court process; (2) the contempt charge was not proven beyond a reasonable doubt; and (3) the appellant should have been granted an adjournment to fully prepare his defense, as denying this deprived him of a fair hearing.
The document discusses several key concepts in company law:
1) The doctrine of ultra vires states that any acts outside a company's object clause are void, though this has been modified by statute.
2) The rule in Foss v Harbottle establishes that the proper plaintiff for wrongs against a company is the company itself, not individual shareholders, unless an exception applies.
3) Exceptions to Foss v Harbottle allow minority shareholders to sue when acts are ultra vires, fraudulent, or where the wrongdoers control the company.
