Malaysian Legal System - Past years attempt 2FAROUQ
The document discusses the various controls on delegated legislation in Malaysia. It notes that while delegated legislation can be abused, it is controlled through parliamentary control, judicial review, consultation requirements, and publication rules. Parliamentary control allows legislation to repeal delegated laws, while judicial review allows courts to invalidate laws that are inconsistent with parent acts or violate procedural requirements. Consultation and publication are also sometimes required by specific parent acts.
This document provides an overview of injunctions under Indian civil procedure law. It defines injunctions as court orders that prohibit actions infringing on another's legal rights. It outlines the types of injunctions under the Specific Relief Act - temporary injunctions governed by the Code of Civil Procedure and perpetual injunctions granted by final decree. The document discusses the rules for temporary and permanent injunctions under Orders 39 and 37 of the CPC. It concludes that injunctions should only be granted when necessary to maintain public order and peace or restore violated rights, and courts consider justice, good faith and interests of third parties.
The document discusses the role and powers of the Adjudicating Authority under the GST Act. It explains that the Adjudicating Authority acts as a quasi-judicial body that adjudicates matters related to tax payments and procedures. The Adjudicating Authority must follow the principles of natural justice, such as allowing both parties to be heard, avoiding bias, and providing a speaking order with reasons. It also discusses the time limits for the Adjudicating Authority to pass an order - within 3 years for normal cases and 5 years if fraud is involved. The principles of natural justice and judicial discipline are important checks on the powers of the Adjudicating Authority.
The document summarizes the Legal Services Authority Act of 1987 in India. It discusses key provisions of the act including establishing legal aid clinics, criteria for providing legal aid based on socioeconomic status, and creating a hierarchy of legal bodies at the national, state, district and local levels. It also describes Lok Adalats, which are specialized courts established under the act to facilitate alternative dispute resolution. Lok Adalats have jurisdiction over pending and new cases up to 10 lakhs rupees and promote speedy and affordable justice through conciliation and settlement.
Section 482 of the CrPC gives High Courts broad inherent powers over criminal justice administration. It allows High Courts to pass orders to secure the ends of justice, even where no specific provision exists under the CrPC. These powers include quashing FIRs, investigations, or criminal proceedings. The powers aim to prevent abuse of court processes and ensure justice. Case law has established contexts where these powers can be exercised, such as when proceedings amount to harassment or there is a legal bar. However, High Courts cannot interfere at interlocutory stages normally or when other remedies exist. The section balances administrative powers with securing justice.

This document provides a legal analysis of a proposed legislative bill regarding filing grievances against guardians with probate courts. The analysis identifies 12 issues with the bill, including that it would eliminate due process rights of guardians, permit petitions without firsthand knowledge, and enable challenging guardianships past statute of limitations. It concludes that any one of the 12 issues could create disastrous outcomes, and opposes enacting the bill due to inherent dangers posed to wards and guardians.
The Chief Justice heard arguments from the State regarding a public interest litigation concerning banners placed in Lucknow with personal details of over 50 individuals accused of vandalism.
The State argued the Court did not have jurisdiction and the banners served the public interest of deterring unlawful behavior. However, the Court found no law permitted disclosing personal details and this violated privacy rights under Article 21 of the Constitution.
While the State can maintain law and order, it cannot violate fundamental rights. The banners interfered with privacy without statutory backing. Privacy is a fundamental right in India, recognized globally and integral to human dignity. Therefore, the Court ruled the banners must be removed.
This document discusses interlocutory applications in Indian law. It begins by defining an interlocutory application as a motion for legal or equitable relief sought before a final decision. It then explains why interlocutory applications are needed, such as to stop unfair actions by other parties or get interim relief. The document outlines the types of interlocutory applications and the steps to make one. It also summarizes some landmark court cases related to interlocutory applications and provides a sample format for filing one. In conclusion, it states that interlocutory applications and hearings are an important part of legal proceedings but can add time and expense.

The prevention of money laundering act, 2002 (2)Himanshu Goyal
The document summarizes key aspects of India's Prevention of Money Laundering Act of 2002. It defines money laundering and outlines the three main stages: placement, layering, and integration. It describes various criminal activities that can generate illicit funds and popular methods used to launder money. The summary also discusses important sections of the act related to definitions, objectives to prevent money laundering, punishment for offenses, attachment and confiscation of property, and search and seizure powers of authorities. The overall purpose of the act is to combat money laundering in India.
This document discusses search and seizure laws in Kenya. It covers searches conducted with a warrant, which require proof on oath or a lawful complaint. A warrant must specify the offense, person/place to be searched, and is valid until executed or cancelled. Searches can also be conducted without a warrant in certain situations, such as with consent, if delay would destroy evidence, or when arresting a person. However, these raise issues of illegally obtained evidence. Reasonable suspicion is required for warrantless searches. The document also discusses extension, execution, and contents of warrants as well as privileged documents and disposal of seized items. It analyzes several relevant court cases from Kenya.
The document summarizes key principles of Nepalese law of evidence:
1) Evidence must be relevant to the issues of the case. Irrelevant evidence wastes the court's time.
2) The best evidence available, such as original documents or eyewitnesses, must be produced.
3) Hearsay evidence, which is not based on direct observation, is generally inadmissible.
4) The burden of proof is on the party making an assertion or claim to prove it, not the opposing party to disprove it.
5) The principle of estoppel prevents a party from taking a contradictory position from what they have previously stated or represented.
Judicial remedies are means by which a court enforces rights and imposes penalties. There are two main types of judicial remedies available in Uganda:
1. Prerogative orders (mandamus, prohibition, certiorari) which address improper exercises of power by public authorities. They compel authorities to fulfill duties, prevent unlawful actions, or nullify unlawful decisions.
2. Ordinary orders which include injunctions to stop unlawful acts, declaratory judgments to clarify legal positions, damages in limited cases, habeas corpus to remedy illegal detention, and judicial review which allows courts to review the legality of decisions based on grounds like illegality, irrationality, and procedural impropriety. Judicial review ensures public authorities follow

AUDI ALTERAM PARTEM: PRINCIPLES OF NATURAL JUSTICEsebis1
These slides are regarding Audi Alteram Administrative law is the body of law that governs the activities of administrative agencies of government. Administrative law deals with the decision-making of administrative units of government such as tribunals, boards or commissions in such areas as international trade, manufacturing, taxation, broadcasting, immigration and transport. Administrative law expanded greatly during the twentieth century, as legislative bodies worldwide created more government agencies to regulate the social, economic and political spheres of human interaction.
4. DEFINITION Administrative law deals with the powers and functions of the administrative authorities, the manner in which the powers are to be exercised by them and the remedies that are available to the aggrieved persons when those powers are abused by the authorities. Jain and Jain – Four aspects of Administrative Law. Administrative Law deals with mainly 4 aspects: Composition and the powers of administrative authorities. Fixes the limits of the powers of these authorities. Prescribes the procedure to be followed by these authorities in exercising such powers. Controls these administrative authorities through judicial and other means.
THE PRINCIPLES OF NATURAL JUSTICE Natural justice is a principle that is intended to ensure law with fairness and to secure justice. The Principles of Natural Justice have come out from the need of man to protect himself from the excesses of organized power. The Principles of Natural Justice are considered the basic Human Rights because they attempt to bring justice to the parties naturally. THREE BASIC PILLARS Three core points in the concept of principles of natural justice include: Nemo in propria causa judex, esse debet - No one should be made a judge in his own case, or the rule against bias. Audi alteram partem - Hear the other party, or the rule of fair hearing, or the rule that no one should be condemned unheard. Speaking order or reasoned decision- Speaking order means an order which contains reasons for the decision. No system of law can survive without these three basic pillars.
‘’Audi alteram partum means ‘‘hear the other side’’ or ‘‘no man should be condemned unheard 'or ‘‘both the sides must be heard before passing any order’’. This is the basic requirement of rule of law.
AUDI ALTERAM PARTEM “A party is not to suffer in person or in purse without an opportunity of being heard.’’ It is mainly applicable in the field of administrative action and is regarded as the first principle of civilised jurisprudence. In short, before an order is passed against any person, reasonable opportunity of being heard must be given to him.
The maxim includes two elements • NOTICE. • HEARING.
Powerpoint presention on Principles of Natural JusticeHarshitaGarg60
The document discusses the principles of natural justice in administrative law. It notes that natural justice comprises two main components - the right to a fair hearing (audi alteram partem) and an impartial decision maker (nemo judex in re sua). It provides examples of when natural justice applies, such as when administrative actions infringe on fundamental rights or involve quasi-judicial decisions. Key aspects of the right to a fair hearing and impartiality are outlined, along with important case laws that have helped shape these principles.
This document discusses procedural fairness in the context of administrative law. It covers several key topics:
1) Sources of procedural fairness obligations, including the Charter, Canadian Bill of Rights, common law, and statutes.
2) Key Supreme Court of Canada cases that have shaped the modern understanding of procedural fairness, including Nicholson, Baker, and Knight.
3) Factors considered in determining whether and to what extent procedural fairness applies in a given case, such as the nature of the decision, statutory context, and importance to individuals affected.
4) Examples of specific procedural protections, such as the right to a hearing, right to provide oral submissions, and right to respond to allegations.
The document discusses the definition and history of contempt of court in India and other jurisdictions. It defines contempt of court as disrespect or disregard for the court or interference with parties during litigation. Lord Hadwick classified contempt into three types: scandalizing the court, abusing parties, and prejudicing the public. Contempt laws were introduced to India by the British and later codified in acts from 1926 to 1952. The US defines contempt similarly as despising the court's authority. Supreme courts have power to punish for contempt to uphold their dignity and authority. The first contempt case in India involved lawyers making allegations against judicial officers.
The document discusses interlocutory applications in Indian law. It begins by defining an interlocutory application as a motion for interim relief sought before a final decision in a case. It notes that interlocutory applications allow parties to seek interim orders to help their case or protect their rights. The document outlines the types of interlocutory applications, the steps to make one, and provides examples of landmark cases related to granting interim injunctions. It concludes by emphasizing the importance of interlocutory applications in keeping legal proceedings on track.

Mardia chemicals case by shreya a322509022Shreya Ganguly
This case involves a challenge to the validity of the Securitization and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002. The key issues are: 1) Whether it is necessary for the court to evaluate the necessity of a statute, 2) Whether existing contract rights can be amended by law in favor of one party, and 3) Whether Section 13 of the Act, which allows secured creditors to enforce security without court intervention, is unconstitutional. The court found that it cannot evaluate the necessity of a statute and that contract rights can be amended by law. It upheld most of Section 13 but added requirements that creditors disclose reasons for not accepting objections and that enforcement can be challenged on the grounds of fraud.

Lifting the Corporate Veil. Power Point Presentationseri bangash
"Lifting the Corporate Veil" is a legal concept that refers to the judicial act of disregarding the separate legal personality of a corporation or limited liability company (LLC). Normally, a corporation is considered a legal entity separate from its shareholders or members, meaning that the personal assets of shareholders or members are protected from the liabilities of the corporation. However, there are certain situations where courts may decide to "pierce" or "lift" the corporate veil, holding shareholders or members personally liable for the debts or actions of the corporation.
Here are some common scenarios in which courts might lift the corporate veil:
Fraud or Illegality: If shareholders or members use the corporate structure to perpetrate fraud, evade legal obligations, or engage in illegal activities, courts may disregard the corporate entity and hold those individuals personally liable.
Undercapitalization: If a corporation is formed with insufficient capital to conduct its intended business and meet its foreseeable liabilities, and this lack of capitalization results in harm to creditors or other parties, courts may lift the corporate veil to hold shareholders or members liable.
Failure to Observe Corporate Formalities: Corporations and LLCs are required to observe certain formalities, such as holding regular meetings, maintaining separate financial records, and avoiding commingling of personal and corporate assets. If these formalities are not observed and the corporate structure is used as a mere façade, courts may disregard the corporate entity.
Alter Ego: If there is such a unity of interest and ownership between the corporation and its shareholders or members that the separate personalities of the corporation and the individuals no longer exist, courts may treat the corporation as the alter ego of its owners and hold them personally liable.
Group Enterprises: In some cases, where multiple corporations are closely related or form part of a single economic unit, courts may pierce the corporate veil to achieve equity, particularly if one corporation's actions harm creditors or other stakeholders and the corporate structure is being used to shield culpable parties from liability.

3. Introduction
When a person uses his illicitly earned money to make a huge income and to use
it fairly can be termed generally as money laundering. However the section 3 of
the Prevention of the Money Laundering Act , 2002 defines more clearly as to what
is money laundering and even makes a person who knowingly assists or knowingly
indulges becomes party or is actually connected to any activity connected to
money laundering or even related to concealment , acquisition or use of such
money will be held liable to the offence of money laundering.
Presentation title 3
4. The act in itself defines the procedure of the investigation of money laundering and
also the adjudicating authorities. Over the time there have been constant debates on
the questionless powers of the authorities under this act to make arrests or to deny
certain rights to the accused. Recently the apex court itself took to address the petition
regarding the unconstitutionality of the powers to make arrest under this act or the
confiscation of the property.
5. The Process
Presentation title 5
• The process of the investigation of a matter goes through various stages according to the
Prevention of Money Laundering Act includes the registration of the FIR then the filing of ECIR
(Enforcement Case Information Report) , issuing summons under section 50 of the act and then
the filing of the final complaint in the Special Court. The adjudicating authorities if they find it fit
and reasonable can issue summon to a person under section 50 of the act.
• The summons are usually issued for the production of documents, evidences or to even conduct
an investigation under the act. Infact, the Additional Director, Joint Director and Deputy of
Assistant Director can issue summons to a person if he considers it necessary in order to
produce any records during the investigation or to hand over an evidence.
6. Cases
• as per the section of the Act the
adjudicating power of the authority is
same as the one given vested in the civil
court under the Code of Civil Procedure
,908 (5 of 908) while trying a suit and
this was also held in the case of G
Radhakrishnan v Assistant Director
(204) SCC online Mad 3980.
• In addition, every proceeding under sub-
section (2) and (3) of Section 50 of
PMLA is deemed to be a judicial
proceeding. In the case of B.
Narayanaswamy v Deputy Director
and Others (2019) SCC online Mad
32868, it was held that, every
proceeding under sub-section(2) and (3)
of Section 50 of PMLA, 2002 shall be
deemed to be a judicial proceeding
within the meaning of section 93 and

7. Conclusion
• The statement made before
the enforcement directorate
is admissible during the
investigation however, if a
statement is made before a
police officer, then it is
inadmissible evidence.
Regarding the relevancy off
statements reordered after
the arrest if an accused
person is forced to be a
witness against himself then
it violates article 20(3) of the
Constitution as ED can force
individuals to give
statements through undue
influence.
• For another issue a petition was
filed to revisit the power of the
ED as authority and the apex
court recently held section 8(4)
of the act which talks about
possession of the property in
question before a formal order
of confiscation is passed should
be an exception and not a rule.
In the same court also stated
that the ED is "not required to
share the ECIR (Enforcement
Case Information Report) copy"
with the accused. This
document, the court said,
cannot be equated with an FIR
(First Information Report).

In conclusion it can be stated that even if the act has been exhaustive in
defining the process of the investigation and to keep a check on the money
laundering , it is to be noted that the powers given to the officers under this
act for adjudicating their authority is extensive and can easily be misused and
a person who may or may not be accused of such offence may be made to give
a statement under coercion or undue influence or threat.
It is to be considered and understood that the purpose of the investigation id
to collect evidences , documents and issuing summons and it wont be violative
of article 20(3) of the Constitution unless a person is arrested and then
compelled to give a statement against himself.
