No genuine or material dispute of fact exists on matters essential to the plaintiff's claim (execution of the Consent Judgment, payment of RM50,000, completion of transfer, failure to refund); the defendant's allegations of property damage are collateral and, if actionable, constitute a separate cause of action and do not justify conversion to a Writ; accordingly conversion was correctly refused and the matter proceeds by Originating Summons.

KEBANKRAPAN NO. WA-29NCC-2442-08/2019 (Mahkamah Tinggi)

The Bankruptcy Notice was valid and reinstated because the amount claimed was ascertainable from the consent judgment (a fixed judgment sum less payments), no interest was payable under the consent judgment to be quantified to filing, the discrepancies were formal defects not causing substantial injustice under s131 Insolvency Act 1967, and paragraph 3 of the consent judgment permitted execution when payments/cheques were returned; a pending appeal did not bar issuance of the BN.

The consent judgments created an arrangement whereby proceeds of sale of company properties would be applied to purchase the company’s shares, thereby effectively using company assets to finance the purchase of its own shares in contravention of s123 Companies Act 2016; that illegality rendered the arrangement null and void under Contracts Act 1950 s24(e), so the plaintiffs’ claims fail and are dismissed.

The appeal is dismissed because the Sessions Court Judge’s ruling on the preliminary objection was a non‑appealable ruling made in the course of trial under s.3 CJA; on the merits the Consent Judgment’s bar on relying on limitation applied to the Declaration Action (the fresh writ) and not to the negligence suit, and in any event the 3rd Defendant failed to plead limitation and therefore could not raise it at trial.
