BA-24NCvC-1595-07/2025 (Mahkamah Tinggi)

The summons is dismissed because the plaintiffs commenced proceedings prematurely by not first exhausting the statutory dispute-resolution mechanisms under the Sports Development Act 1997, and on the merits they failed to prove the AGM or election were invalid—there was insufficient evidence of a valid adjournment, of non‑membership affecting quorum or votes, or of dishonesty by defendants to vitiate the AGM or actions (including Show Cause Letters).

BA-24NCC-106-10/2025 (Mahkamah Tinggi)

The ex parte injunction was set aside because the Plaintiffs failed the strict duty of full and frank disclosure (notably non‑disclosure of the controlling 2023 decision) and did not furnish a valid undertaking as to damages; additionally Plaintiffs, as co‑opted State Chairmen, lack locus standi under binding precedent so no serious triable issue exists and the AGM and subsequent removals were valid under the AoA, therefore the originating summons is dismissed.

The plaintiff's application for summary judgment was dismissed because material factual discrepancies and contested, fact‑dependent issues (date and validity of the impugned AGM, mis‑exhibited constitution provisions, conflicting minutes and assertions about quorum and compliance with court directions) established triable issues; Order 14 was inappropriate where credibility and factual resolution are necessary.
