Case number

WA-22NCvC-519-07/2019 (Mahkamah Tinggi)

The court refused leave to amend because the proposed amendments were not bona fide but constituted an attempt to reframe and substantively change the nature of the action, introduced new collateral allegations and causes of action that would prejudice Defendant 2 in a manner not compensable by costs, and therefore allowing them would be unjust; application dismissed with costs.
