This document summarizes key procedures and considerations regarding the sale of land charged under a land office title in Malaysia. It outlines the process the chargee must take to apply for an order of sale from the Land Administrator, including an inquiry where only the chargor and chargee can attend. It also discusses differences compared to foreclosure on a registry title, the Land Administrator's limited powers, and rights of the chargor and chargee throughout the process.
Criminal force requires the intentional or knowing application of force without consent, with the aim of causing an ulterior object. Case law establishes that threatening to harm someone if they advance constitutes criminal force, as does deliberately reversing a vehicle into another. Merely raising a stick threateningly enough to cause someone to flee also meets the standard. Attempting to undress someone against their will equally qualifies as criminal force used to outrage modesty. Words alone do not necessarily constitute criminal force if their meaning is too vague.

This document discusses security dealings recognized under the National Land Code 1965 (NLC), specifically charges or Torrens charges. It defines a charge as a security transaction where a registered landowner uses their land as collateral for a loan. If the borrower defaults, the lender can foreclose and sell the land. Key requirements for creating a valid charge include using the prescribed statutory form and registering the charge at the relevant land office. The document outlines differences between charges and common law mortgages, what types of land can be charged, restrictions on charging, and requirements like amending statutory forms in annexures.
Norla, an old and illiterate woman, executed a deed of gift giving her landed property to her nephew Hashim. Before doing so, she received independent legal advice from Khalid, though Khalid was unaware the gift constituted Norla's whole property. Hashim had lived with and cared for Norla for years, collecting rents and managing repairs. Norla is now suing to claim the deed is voidable due to undue influence. To succeed, she must prove Hashim was in a dominant position over her and used this to obtain an unfair advantage through the gift. It is unclear if she will be able to do so given she received independent advice, though the full scope of the gift was unknown.
This document discusses Land Administrator's Right of Way (LAROW) in Malaysia. It defines LAROW as a right of way created by the Land Administrator over alienated land to provide access between any land and a public terminal, with or without the proprietor's concurrence. LAROW is a type of imposed right that runs with the land and binds successor titles. The document outlines the process for creating public and private LAROW, including applying to the Land Administrator, surveys, compensation, and conditions for extinguishing a LAROW. It also summarizes several court cases related to determining when a LAROW is considered "expedient" over alternative access routes.

1. The State Authority can reserve state land for public purposes or issue temporary occupation licenses (TOL) and permits for extraction of rock material on state land.
2. A TOL confers non-proprietary rights and possession to the licensee but cannot be assigned, transferred, or inherited. It expires upon the death of the licensee.
3. The land authority can terminate a TOL for breach of conditions and the licensee has no right to compensation for improvements made to the land upon termination. All structures revert to the state without compensation.

The document discusses Jual Janji, a Malay customary security transaction. It begins by outlining the objectives and introduction. It then explores the origins and literal meaning of Jual Janji, describing it as a contract where a borrower transfers land to a lender in exchange for a loan. The document outlines the characteristics and rationale of Jual Janji transactions. It examines judicial views, including recognizing Jual Janji as a security transaction or applying equitable mortgage principles. The document concludes by discussing Jual Janji in the context of the National Land Code and differing views on its application.
This document discusses the parol evidence rule in contract law in Malaysia. It provides definitions of key concepts like contracts and the parol evidence rule. The main points are:
1) Sections 91 and 92 of Malaysia's Evidence Act 1950 govern the parol evidence rule - oral evidence cannot contradict a written contract except in specific exceptions.
2) There have been different interpretations by courts on when oral evidence can be admitted, with some cases taking a stricter view to protect the written terms.
3) Collateral contracts, being separate oral promises existing alongside the written contract, are one way oral evidence can be admitted without violating the parol evidence rule.

The document discusses key concepts relating to the alienation and disposal of state land in Malaysia. It explains the different types of titles that can be granted for state land (registry title, land office title, qualified title), the conditions and restrictions that can be imposed on disposed state land, and when alienation of state land becomes legally effective (upon registration of title, not just approval of disposal). Key methods of state land disposal include alienation, which can be for a term of years or in perpetuity, and involves payment of rent and/or premium as consideration.
The document discusses key provisions and definitions related to dealings and transfers of alienated land under Malaysia's National Land Code (NLC). It covers definitions of dealings, transfers, leases, tenancies exempt from registration (TER), and estate land. It also discusses requirements for instruments, registration, and consent needed for different types of transfers and leases. Case studies are presented to illustrate applications of the NLC provisions.
This document outlines the key elements of a valid contract to marry under Malaysian law, including definitions, requirements, breach and consequences. It discusses the requirements of offer, acceptance, consideration and capacity. Capacity requires that parties be single and of age. Breach can occur through failure to marry within a reasonable time or through anticipatory breach. Defences include misrepresentation, lack of a duty of full disclosure, and proof of moral/physical infirmity. Consequences of breach include general and special damages awards.
This document discusses the concept of "personal liberty" under Article 5(1) of the Malaysian Constitution through a summary of various court cases. It addresses how personal liberty relates to rights of the person or body, such as freedom from unlawful detention, right to be informed of arrest grounds, and right to legal counsel. However, it does not include rights to travel overseas or obtain a passport, as the government has discretion over passport issuance. The document also examines how personal liberty has been more broadly interpreted in some cases to include additional rights.
The document discusses the meaning and effects of a prohibitory order (PO) under Malaysian law. A PO is a court order obtained by a judgment creditor against a judgment debtor to restrain the debtor from disposing of land subject to execution proceedings to recover a judgment debt. It prohibits registration of dealings on the land. Case law discussed establishes that a PO only binds the interest still held by the debtor and cannot override prior interests, and an extension requires proof of special circumstances. The document provides definitions and explanations of key terminology and procedures regarding POs under the relevant laws and rules of court.
The document discusses private caveats under Malaysian land law. A private caveat is a statutory injunction entered by the Registrar upon application by a person claiming an interest in land. It preserves the status quo of the land and suspends registration until disputes over claims are resolved. A private caveat does not create or enhance the caveator's interest, but rather serves as notice of a claim and prohibits dealings with the land pending litigation. The requirements for entering, extending, and removing a private caveat are outlined according to sections of the National Land Code.
Ll1 slides extent of ownership and enjoyment of land part 2xareejx
This document discusses the extent of ownership and rights regarding land below the surface and adjacent support.
It outlines that under Section 44(1)(a) of the NLC, a landowner has exclusive use and enjoyment of the land below the surface that is reasonably necessary. However, this is subject to other laws. Trespassing underground onto another's land can constitute trespass. Adjoining landowners also have a right to support from neighboring lands to maintain the land in its natural state. However, there is no right to additional support for land in a weakened excavated state. Some jurisdictions have extended this right of support to include buildings erected on the land. The document provides various case examples to illustrate these principles.
MALAYSIAN LEGAL SYSTEM Sources of law – subsidiary legislationxareejx
Subsidiary legislation refers to laws made by authorities other than the legislature under powers granted by a primary or parent legislation. The parent legislation delegates authority to make subsidiary laws on technical or administrative matters. For example, the Employment Act 1955 allows the Minister to make regulations on employee termination benefits. The Minister enacted the Employment (Termination and Lay-Off Benefits) Regulation 1980 as the subsidiary legislation. Subsidiary laws allow details to be handled by experts and offer flexibility, but some argue it violates separation of powers.
The document discusses land use categories and conditions that may be imposed when land is alienated by the State Authority (SA). It outlines how the SA can endorse categories of agricultural, building, or industry land use. The SA can also impose limitations on transferring, mortgaging, or leasing the land without SA permission. The document then examines options for varying the land use category or conditions and the process for determining a breach of conditions that could result in land forfeiture.
The document discusses the rights of arrested persons under Article 5 of the Malaysian Constitution.
It describes the 3 rights under Article 5(3): 1) the right to be informed of the grounds of arrest, 2) the right to consult a lawyer, and 3) the right to be defended by a lawyer of one's choice. It also discusses the right under Article 5(4) to be produced before a magistrate within 24 hours.
Several court cases are discussed that relate to defining and enforcing these rights. For example, in Abdul Rahman v Tan Jo Koh the court held that a person must be given a reason for their arrest within a reasonable time. In Ramli bin Salleh the right to counsel was

The Law Reform (Marriage & Divorce) Act 1976 diminished the relevance of Chinese and Hindu customary laws on marriage and divorce in Malaysia in three key ways:
1. It abolished polygamous marriage among Chinese people by introducing monogamy for Hindu and Chinese communities.
2. It established a common system for solemnizing and registering all marriages.
3. It provided uniformity in marriage and divorce laws for Chinese and Hindus, avoiding conflicts over which laws to apply.

This document discusses freedom of speech and expression under Malaysian law. It begins by outlining the relevant constitutional provisions protecting freedom of speech, then discusses limitations on this right that are permitted by law, such as restrictions relating to security, public order, morality and contempt of court. Several laws that place restrictions on speech are examined in detail, including the Printing Presses and Publications Act 1984 and the Sedition Act 1948. Key cases interpreting and applying these laws are also summarized. The document concludes by restating the definition of "seditious tendency" under the Sedition Act.
The document discusses the key features and concepts of a Registrar's Caveat (RC) under Malaysian law. It explains that an RC is entered by the Registrar to protect land from fraudulent or improper dealings. The Registrar has discretion to enter an RC when necessary to prevent fraud, protect government interests, or rectify errors. An RC prevents dealings on the land but does not affect prior registered interests. The document outlines the procedures for entering, duration of, and removing an RC through the Registrar or courts.
The document discusses the purposive approach to statutory interpretation. It provides the following key points:
1. The purposive approach considers the intention of Parliament and what they meant to achieve with the legislation, going beyond the literal meaning of the words.
2. This approach is more flexible than the literal or golden rules but allows judges to potentially add or remove words not included in the act.
3. Critics argue it allows unelected judges to usurp the legislative function and make law rather than interpreting the words Parliament used. However, supporters counter that it can prevent absurd outcomes and allow statutes to apply to new situations not foreseen at enactment.

Statutory Interpretation - approaches and rules appliedRonit Himatlal
The document discusses four approaches to statutory interpretation used by judges:
1) The literal approach interprets words based on their plain meaning using rules like the literal rule, golden rule, and mischief rule.
2) The purposive approach looks at the overall purpose of Parliament to interpret ambiguous words.
3) Cases like Smith v Hughes and Jones v Tower Boot Co. illustrate judges using the mischief rule and purposive approach to interpret statutes broadly to address the problems Parliament intended to fix.
4) The trend is for courts to increasingly use the purposive approach influenced by European law, but the literal approach remains more common in English courts.
The document provides an overview of rules of statutory interpretation used by judges in the UK. It discusses the literal rule, where words are given their plain meaning, and the golden rule and mischief rule, which allow interpretations to avoid absurd outcomes or address the problems the statute aimed to fix. It also covers maxims like ejusdem generis and noscitur a sociis that help define terms based on associated words. Case examples are used to illustrate how the different rules have been applied in practice.
This document discusses how judges interpret Acts of Parliament passed by the legislature. It outlines several approaches judges may take, including literal interpretation focusing strictly on the wording, golden rules that allow flexibility in interpretation to avoid absurd outcomes, and purposive interpretation seeking to understand the overall purpose and intent of the legislation. Later approaches like the mischief rule examine the original problem or issue the legislation aimed to address. The need for interpretation arises from vagueness or ambiguity in language and changes over time.
Chapter 1 introdution to interpretation of statutesAsmatullah Kakar
The document discusses the interpretation of statutes. It begins by explaining that statutes are written laws created by the legislature and that the judiciary's role is to interpret and apply these statutes. It then defines interpretation as explaining or translating a text. The document goes on to discuss different types of interpretation and some common issues with language like ambiguity, vagueness, and problems that arise from indirect communication through written language. It emphasizes that because statutes are written in language, they too are subject to these problems, creating a need for judicial interpretation to determine the legislature's intended meaning.
This document discusses statutory interpretation and two approaches: the mischief rule and purposive approach. The mischief rule examines what problem an act was meant to address by considering prior common law, the reasons for the act, and remedies proposed. The purposive approach looks beyond problems to an act's overall social purpose. The document outlines important cases that illustrate these approaches, including Heydon's Case, Jones v. Wrotham Park, and Royal College of Nursing v. DHSS. It also notes advantages, disadvantages, and limitations of the mischief rule.
The document summarizes the legal profession act of Malaysia which governs the admission to and regulation of the legal profession. It outlines the three stages for entry including qualifications, being called to the bar, and obtaining a practicing certificate. It also describes the requirements and process for qualified persons and articled clerks to enter the profession. The document then discusses the disciplinary process and penalties for advocates and solicitors who violate professional standards.
The document discusses statutory interpretation, which is the process of interpreting and applying legislation. It explains that judges, lawyers, and law students need to interpret statutes when deciding cases or advising clients. Statutory interpretation is necessary due to ambiguities, broad language, or unforeseen situations. The document contrasts the literal approach, which focuses strictly on the wording, and the purposive approach, which considers legislative intent, with the purposive approach being more common in Europe.
Statutory interpretation – the golden ruleJoanne Arthur
The golden rule of statutory interpretation allows judges to depart from a literal interpretation of a statute if it would produce an absurd result that was clearly unintended by Parliament. Under the golden rule, judges can modify the language used in a statute or give unusual meanings to words to align the interpretation with Parliament's overall intention for the statute. However, the golden rule is still subordinate to the literal interpretation and only applies in cases where the literal meaning would be manifestly absurd or unreasonable. Some criticisms of the golden rule are that it gives judges too much discretion and flexibility to deviate from Parliament's actual wording.

Modes of Originating Process - For Revision Purposes OnlyAzrin Hafiz
This document summarizes the different modes of originating process in the Malaysian High Court under the Rules of Court 2012, including writs of summons and originating summonses. It outlines when each process is appropriate based on whether substantial disputes of fact are likely to arise. It also discusses cases that demonstrate when certain claims must be commenced by writ, can be determined summarily by originating summons, or are inappropriate for a given mode of process. The document concludes by examining the effects of using the wrong originating process and circumstances where proceedings will continue instead of being set aside.
The document summarizes several cases related to easements in Malaysian land law. In the first case, Alfred Templeton & Ors v Low Yat Holdings Sdn Bhd & Anor, the court granted equitable relief to the plaintiff and ordered an easement be registered based on promises made by the defendant during a land sale that led the plaintiff to believe they would have right of way access. In Datin Siti Hajar v Murugasu, the court ruled that long use of a road across the plaintiff's land did not constitute an easement since it was not expressly granted. And in EW Talalla v Ng Yee Fong & Anor and Tan Wee Choon v Ong Peck
The Federal Court overturned its previous decision in Adorna Properties and held that a party who acquires a registered interest in land via a forged instrument does not obtain immediate indefeasible title. The Court found its previous interpretation of Section 340 of the National Land Code to be erroneous and contrary to the provision's intent. It held that the proviso protecting good faith purchasers for value under Section 340(3) does not apply to Section 340(2), so the defendant bank did not gain immediate indefeasibility when it acquired two charges on the land through a forged power of attorney.
Civil Family Law - Promise to Marry (Betrothal)Azrin Hafiz

For a betrothal contract to be valid, there must be an offer and acceptance, consideration in the form of consent to marry, and the parties must have the capacity to marry. The document outlines the requirements for capacity including that the parties must be single, of age, not within a prohibited degree of relationship, and of religions that do not prevent marriage. It discusses exceptions and cases related to these requirements. The document also examines what constitutes a breach of contract if the betrothal is valid and potential defenses a defendant could raise. Finally, it lists the available remedies if

The document discusses betrothal or engagement in Islamic family law. It begins by establishing that betrothal is permitted in Islam based on Quranic verses and hadith. It then outlines the customary Malay betrothal ceremony and notes that customary practices are permitted if not against sharia. While a betrothal agreement is a moral promise, it creates certain obligations and liabilities if breached without valid reason. Specifically, the party in breach may be required to return gifts or expenses related to the planned marriage under Islamic law and Malaysia's Islamic Family Law Act. The document concludes by summarizing two court cases related to financial liabilities for breached betrothal agreements.
