- ARAB MALAYSIAN MERCHANT BANK BHD v CHONG ON FOH MEDICAL HALL
- Court
- Malaysian court
Given the factual matrix (document custody by bank, signatories impracticable to call, distance between courts and bank, repeated prior attendance by the bank officer and the small monetary claim), the High Court held s 73A(2) empowered the magistrate to admit the agreement to avoid undue delay or expense; failure to consider s 73A(2) was an error and justified allowing the appeal and admitting the document.
