Very, very wrong! There are various forms of contempt and some entitle the judge acting immediately and some require a proper 'prosecution' of the alleged contempt. The contempt complained about here is not contempt in the face of the court which requires immediate arbitrary action by the court. This was an action filed in the registry concerning judge A which came up for hearing several months later before judge B. Which rule book entitled judge B to act in the manner. If judge B thinks that the litigant is scandalising the judiciary or a judge or interfering with the due administration of justice then there are ways and means to deal with the matter. No judge should act with this haste and in this manner in contempt against an unrepresented lay litigant. The law in this area is complex and involved. Issues of the scrullious abuse of a judge or attacks upon the integrity or impartiality of a judge or a court cannot readily be handled by a lay litigant. In general, courts should ignore attacks upon them and must never use this process to stifle legitimate critiscm. I do not know this lady or her penchant for litigation. If she is a vexatious litigant then that is a separate and distinct matter. But contempt and imprisonment is a different ballgame altogether. And I stress this, contempts of this nature SHOULD NEVER be dealt with summarily! anjeet Singh Dhillon - Manjeet Singh Dhillon Fri, 23 May 2008 10:26:47 +0100 http://www.malaysianbar.org.my/legal/general_news/she_wants_judge_jailed_but_gets_into_deep_trouble.html#pc_6835 Dear Elin, I agree with you on the part that we should hear the full facts and if she was properly advised of her rights she would not have ended up in jail. You did once encountered the same situation when you represented me in a disciplinary proceeding against another member of the Bar. Lawyer suing another lawyer. But what did I get Elin? "Oh sorry your complaint was badly drafted." and hundreds of reasons given to defeat the complaint. although we were given second chance, I was make to believe again that i have no case against the lawyer and was advised to withdraw my complaint and so I did. (i know you didnt represent me at the 2nd hearing as you have urgent matter to attend). Finally, I managed to get a copy of the alleged documents and found out that the lawyer and/or his lawyer has forged my signature. I was so disappointed that none of the panelist in IT actually believes me. I end up not filing any nor lodge complaint as i got fed up of being given excuses like your papers are badly drafted therefore you have no case. So, I think I understand this poor woman's feeling. She was tired, all she wanted was her late husband's properties so that she can feed their children. The judge should have advise her properly of the procedure before jumping to his conclusion that she might sue him next. Jail and imposing bail for RM30K is ridiculous. Sudahlah takda duit kasi anak makan, now she need to fork out RM30K as bail untuk pastikan anak-anak di rumah tidak mati kelaparan. My question is what harm can this poor lady cause that made the judge to come out with such decision?

Her husband had died 6 years ago. Her problems had probably endured for the past 6 years. No wonder she is a common sight in the Shah Alam courts - to Mr. Ng Chung Yee. I really wonder how she had brought up her four children during the last 6 years! Have they been unnecessarily deprived? I hope they will grow up to be national assets one day. She had hoped for justice from the strict laws of man but had not approached matters in the right manner.

I had almost mistaken her as a tout once because of her constant presence until a friend told me otherwise. I have my reservations about her actions.

I doubt if she had been properly advised of her legal rights. The Courts too should have been responsible enough to advise her to appoint a lawyer rather than take her to task for her lack of legal knowledge. I sympathise her and perhaps can emphatise with her frustrations. But let's hear the full facts of this case, rather than depend on what has been reported in the newspapers.

I really don't understand what harm will this desperate woman cause that make the court imposed RM30,000.00 bail on her... Sometimes I'm just sick to hear this kinda thing, just doesn't make sense to me.. Dara Waheda Binti Mohd Rufin - Dara Waheda Mohd Rufin Thu, 22 May 2008 14:47:21 +0100
