The application to cancel the citation was dismissed because the dispute is a contested probate matter that raises substantial factual and legal issues unsuitable for summary disposal under Order 18 r 19; procedural defects identified did not constitute irremediable injustice warranting striking out and the proper course was to consolidate the proceedings with the existing substantive suit for full hearing.

Procedural Posture

Probate and Administration / Interlocutory Application to Strike Out / Cancel Citation

Legal Issues

  1. 1 Whether the citation (Lampiran 115) should be struck out as scandalous, oppressive, an abuse of process or causing delay under Order 18 r 19; whether the citor failed to comply with the procedural requirements (including Form 167 and service/time requirements) under Order 71/72; whether the proceedings are multiplicative/duplicative of an existing suit (JB-22NCVC-65-10/2018) and thus subject to dismissal or consolidation

Ratio Decidendi

The application to cancel the citation was dismissed because the dispute is a contested probate matter that raises substantial factual and legal issues unsuitable for summary disposal under Order 18 r 19; procedural defects identified did not constitute irremediable injustice warranting striking out and the proper course was to consolidate the proceedings with the existing substantive suit for full hearing.
