    Citation
    ELIJAH SAATORI v. RAFFLES MEDICAL GROUP
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCA990/2006

    The court refused the plaintiff's application for a jury and ordered transfer to the Personal Injury List because the claim is a personal injury action subject to the general rule of judge trial, the alleged tinnitus is not sufficiently unique or exceptional to justify a jury, and issues of credibility alone do not warrant departing from that rule.
