    AA-22NCvC-105-12/2023 (Mahkamah Tinggi)

    Application to transfer was refused because the affidavit evidence showed the cause of action arose in Ipoh where the plaintiff resided, received repayments and suffered two consecutive defaults; under Order 57 the court exercised its discretion considering the statutory factors and ancillary considerations (including potential for summary disposal and modern remote hearing capabilities) and concluded it would be more convenient and just to retain the matter in the High Court at Ipoh.
