Our Partners have contributed two chapters on Admiralty and Shipping Law and Insolvency Law to the Singapore Academy of Law Annual Review of Singapore Cases (“SAL Ann Review“). The SAL Ann Review is an annual publication that highlights key Singapore cases in an array of areas of law in the preceding year. Its contributors comprise leading practitioners and academics who review and analyse these cases.
- Admiralty and Shipping Law: Our Senior Partner, Toh Kian Sing, SC, highlighted four admiralty judgments in 2021, including one decision by the Court of Appeal concerning wrongful arrest claim.
- lnsolvency Law: Our Partners Sim Kwan Kiat, Kelvin Poon, Wilson Zhu and with contribution from Raelene Pereira, discussed significant cases in 2021 including the Court of Appeal’s decision on the test for insolvency and on the United Nation’s Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) Model Law for Cross-border Insolvency (“Model Law“). They also covered cases where the courts considered the ambit of the estate costs rule, and addressed the much-debated interplay between insolvency law and maritime law.
These chapters were first published in e-First on 12 July 2022 and 13 July 2022, respectively. e-First is SAL’s e-publishing prior-to-print module.
