Procedural Posture

Civil Contractual Dispute, Dishonoured Cheques and Company/share Issues / Decision on Defendants' Application to Strike Out Writ and Statement of Claim in Sessions Court; Dismissal of Application; Appeal Filed to High Court

  1. 1 Whether the plaintiff's claim is sustainable or should be struck out summarily
  2. 2 Whether the cheques delivered functioned as a guarantee and give rise to an immediate cause of action on dishonour
  3. 3 Whether the claim is a share reduction/company law matter outside Sessions Court jurisdiction

Ratio Decidendi

The Sessions Court dismissed the defendants' strike‑out application because the pleadings and contemporaneous documents disclosed bona fide triable issues: the plaintiff pleaded repayment of a recognised loan of RM164,649 supported by a financial assessment and handed cheques which were dishonoured giving an immediate cause of action under the Bills of Exchange Act; allegations of fraud and misrepresentation cannot be resolved on strike out and require trial; the claim is contractual for repayment not a share reduction matter, and the Sessions Court therefore has jurisdiction.

Court Disposition

Defendants' application to strike out the writ and statement of claim dismissed.
