| الملخص: | Apart from the ordinary courts of law there are many courts with limited and specialised jurisdiction in Malaysia. Special courts usually do not follow the same procedural rules as in the courts of general jurisdiction. Further, special courts often proceed without the benefit or expense of legal representation. The judges who serve in the special
courts are as varied as the special courts themselves.
More importantly, cases are more likely to be
disposed of speedily than in a court of general
jurisdiction. Apart from the special courts, there
are also many tribunals established in Malaysia.
Although tribunals may resemble courts as they
make a decision on a particular dispute, they are
not part of the court system but run parallel to the
court system. This chapter discusses the jurisdiction
and powers of the selected special courts namely,
the Syariah Court, Industrial Court, ‘Labour Court’
and Native Courts. Besides the special court, the
chapter also includes the discussion of the selected
tribunals namely, the Tribunal for Consumer
Claims and the Tribunal for Homebuyer Claims |
